This octagonal silver wine cooler, created by William Lukin I in the early 18th century, is a beautiful example of English silversmithing. The piece is richly ornamented with engraved floral patterns and a central coat of arms. It is likely that this wine cooler, one of a pair, was commissioned by a wealthy patron, demonstrating the craftsmanship and luxury of the period. Its detailed ornamentation and elegant form showcase the skill of the silversmith and the appreciation for fine artistry in 18th-century England.
