An exceptional quality hallmarked silver vinaigrette by Francis Clark. This is an early Victorian vinaigrette and is fully hallmarked for Birmingham 1840. This has a lovely engine turned decoration to the top and bottom which is edged with a raised decoration. The top has a blank and unengraved cartouche.
The inside is complete and contains a highly decorative grille and gilded interior.
The hallmarks inside the lid and base are clear. A really desirable example of an early Victorian Silver vinaigrette
