This ornate silver salver, crafted by renowned silversmith David Willaume I in 1710-1711, showcases the opulent style of the early 18th century. Its center is adorned with an engraved coat of arms, while the rim is intricately decorated with scrolling foliage and scallop-like motifs. The salver, which measures 24 inches in diameter, is a testament to the skill and artistry of its maker, and is now a prized possession of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
