專家說明

Gorham's Martele archives as reproduced by Larry Pristo, Martele 950-1000 Gorham's Nouveau Art Silver, 2002, p. 225 indicate that Child's Cup 6812 was part of a three-piece set including a plate and bowl. Completed on 29 November 1897, this set is recorded as the "FIRST SPECIAL ORDER OF MARTELE". Although the identity of the chaser was not documented, it is know that the bowl and present lot were raised by William C. Young.
