Antique Bouillabaisse Sauceboat in 800/- Silver
The scorpion fish soup already existed in ancient times and belongs to the traditions of the Mediterranean region. Today, the preparation of a bouillabaisse is part of sophisticated cuisine.
Unusual gravy boat in silver in the shape of an opened shell. The ribbed body, gilded on the inside, stands on three shells which are also gilded on the inside. The body of a Mediterranean moray eel was chosen as the handle in a realistic representation. High-quality work of an unknown silversmith in masterly execution, pay stamp 800 M, in addition a hardly identifiable hallmark on the reverse, probably import mark Linz/Austria 1891 - 1902. With decorative monogram. Worth collecting!
