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.

 

12.5 Troy Oz.
