Caster

Adrian Bancker American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 750

Although eighteenth-century American silver casters were often made in sets for sugar and spices, almost no complete sets have survived. This caster is part of a set of three (1972.233.1a,b -.3a,b) made by Adrian Bancker, a prominent New York silversmith. It is almost identical to a set now in the Museum of the City of New York.
