GEORGE III SILVER SALVER

Richard Rugg, London, 1767

The round salver with plain field centering a coat of arms within a beribboned floral and foliate mantle,

surrounded by a rococo cast reticulated rim, raised on three splayed foliate feet.

Condition: Excellent

Note:

Arms: on an embattled shield or and azure, above all a shield argent with a cross, or, three

crosslets in each quarter, a lion rampant, or, behind. It is un-researched, but possibly those

of a clergy, as the shield is beribboned, and mantle is floral and foliate, rather than the fabric

of a blanket . The simple cross on a shield is one of the oldest heraldic ensigns in England,

belonging to the time of the first crusades. It is the most frequently employed insignia of

religious foundations.
