专家说明

The present lot was designed by Christopher Dresser circa 1881 and is unusual as it is hallmarked for sterling silver, where as other plated examples only have markings for the manufacturer, Hukin and Heath. Two nearly identical silver-plated examples are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (1985.311) and Dallas Museum of Art (2001.321).
