Description
A very sweet small Georgian silver vinaigrette exquisitely modelled in the form of a satchel with very fine hand engraved decoration to all sides, a criss-cross texture to form the leather effect and bright cut engraved detail and hammering for the stitching and edges. Gilt washed inside with a simple pierced grill. These novelty purse type vinaigrettes are usually much larger examples and the intricate work and attention to detail involved on this small example is a real delight. Hallmarked Birmingham 1818, maker Lawrence & Co.
