This silver teapot, crafted by renowned silversmith Paul de Lamerie in 1743-44, is a prime example of the Rococo style. The teapot's body is adorned with intricate chased decoration, featuring a playful cherub among scrolling foliage and shell motifs. The spout is formed as an eagle's head, and the teapot boasts a wooden handle that contrasts beautifully with the silver body. The teapot is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
