Two-Handled Sauceboat 1730 - 1731

This silver sauceboat, crafted by Edward Feline between 1730 and 1731, is a fine example of Rococo style. The piece is characterized by its elegant, flowing lines and intricate ornamentation, particularly the two handles. The engraved coat of arms on the base adds a personal touch and suggests the sauceboat was a cherished piece of silverware for a specific family. This exquisite object, now part of the The Art Institute of Chicago’s collection, showcases the craftsmanship and artistry of the Rococo period.
