專家說明

The pattern for its 'poetic' handles, of pearled paterae festooned with beribboned laurels, also features in a contemporary metal-worker pattern-book (numbered 1842) (see N. Goodison, 'The Victoria and Albert Museum's Collection of Metal-Work Pattern Books,' Furniture History, 1975, fig. 22).
