The Saucepan is of a good large size and has a baluster form rising to an everted rim. This piece has an unusual "sparrow beak" pouring spout with a pendant drop below. The tubular silver section of the handle is attached to the main body with a beautiful heart shaped moulding. The original fruitwood handle is finely turned and is attached to the silver section with a reeded socket. The saucepan is very well marked on the base and shows original hammer marks from when it was originally raised. This piece is in quite excellent condition.
Height: 3.25 inches.
Diameter at the widest point: 4.1 inches.
Length of the handle: 6.1 inches.
Weight: 12oz.
