1819 Colin Richardson of Edinburgh Sterling Silver Parcel Gilt Sauce Ladle Scottish King's Pattern (38 g)

$190.00
An elegant early nineteenth-century Scottish sauce ladle by Colin Richardson of Edinburgh, dated 1819. Crafted in sterling silver, the ladle is finished with parcel gilding that lends a warm contrast to the silver and highlights its refined detailing. The handle is executed in the richly ornamented King's Pattern, with its characteristic shell and scroll motifs, a design associated with the formal table silver of the Georgian period. Made in Edinburgh during the reign of George III, this handsome piece represents the distinguished Scottish silversmithing tradition of the period. Its compact proportions make it a useful addition to an antique flatware collection or a refined accent for a traditionally laid table. In good antique condition, with wear consistent with age and use. Dimensions: 5.75" Weight: approximately 38 grams.
