Paul Storr Georgian Sterling Silver Sauceboat 1811

Paul Storr Georgian Sterling Silver Sauceboat

Charming later Agricultural Engraving of a cow "LILLY".

This Tureen Made in London in 1811.

A Superb Georgian Sterling Large Silver Sauceboat.  Made in London, in 1811, by Paul Storr.  With the great benefit of a charming Engraved image of milking cow "LILY" Inscribed 'Cork Agricultural Society for Best Durham 1841'.  Gadrooned top in heavy silver.  On an ovoid stepped and gadrooned foot.  The usual absolutely splendid acanthus leaf capped scroll handle.  This is the usual very good quality of make and design from Paul Storr.  Acanthus leaves folded around spout.  Not too ornate with large areas of plain silver a rather RARE item with a great deal of charm.  Typically made in a very good weight of silver giving a feeling of value and wealth.  A match to the vegtable tureen currently being sold.                  

At this time in Paul Storr's life he had recently been made a partner in The Rundell and Bridge company selling silver to The Royal Family and with excellent trade connections around the world.
