A very fine & rare pair of George II cast Sauceboats made in Edinburgh in 1759 by Lothian & Robertson.
The Sauceboats are modelled in a typically Scottish form and stand on a cast collet foot, which is decorated with gadrooning.
The baluster, elongated, main body also rises to a gadrooned rim, with a double scroll under the pouring spout.
The scroll handle is decorated with leaf capping and displays a pronounced thumb piece.
The sauceboats are in quite excellent condition and have a good colour. They each display a crisp set of hallmarks on the underside of the foot.
They are both of a good weight and they are of the quality which you would expect from these silversmiths.
Sauceboats from Scotland are very rare and to find a pair is uncommon.
Dimensions:
Length, handle to spout: 7.5 inches, 18.75cm.
Width: 3.45 inches, 8.63cm.
Height, to the top of the handle: 4 inches, 10cm.
