This miniature silver caster, crafted between 1720 and 1723 by English silversmith David Clayton, is a beautiful example of early 18th-century craftsmanship. The caster, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is small and elegant, with a pear-shaped body and a domed lid with pierced holes for dispensing its contents. This delicate piece, standing just 1 3/4 inches tall, exemplifies the refined taste of the period.
