This silver salver, created in London between 1775 and 1776, showcases the craftsmanship of the period. The elegant, circular form is adorned with a delicate, engraved border. The central motif features a coat of arms, reflecting the importance of heraldry in 18th-century society. This piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the refined taste and skilled artistry of silversmiths during the Georgian era.
