ABOUT PRODUCTID 19799
This silver-plated brass sauce ladle is an example of utilitarian British design from the early 20th century, characteristic of the late Victorian or Edwardian era. The construction features an elongated, curved handle ending in an oval, flattened grip and a deep, hemispherical bowl. The base material is brass, expertly coated in silver for a muted, slightly warm silver tone with a matte finish and visible, authentic patina. The surface is smooth but shows areas of darkening from tarnish, as well as scratches and abrasions typical of an object used over many decades. The design is devoid of ornamentation, emphasizing function and pared-down form in keeping with the minimalist trend in decorative arts of the period. The junction of the handle and bowl is seamlessly crafted for ergonomic serving of sauces. Condition is good – the surface displays clear traces of age and use, with no signs of recent restoration, preserving the object’s historic integrity.The softly matte surface and gently rounded lines of the ladle evoke the ambience of a British dining room at the turn of the 20th century, where practicality converged with a muted appreciation for form. This piece is restrained and unadorned, quietly narrating the rituals of daily meals, gatherings, and the understated celebration of everyday life. Its patina is a testament to countless dinners past, each mark and tarnished spot offering a silent record of history.The ladle can serve as a discreet accent on the table in a setting
