Chaleira, fogão e mesa

1724–25
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 512
Este bule impressionante e a mesa foram provavelmente feitos para celebrar o casamento, em 1724, de George Bowes de Streatham Castelo com a rica herdeira Eleanor Verney. Foi um presente muito caro, já que o tripé com pés ondulados que suportam a mesa é de prata maciça. É um dos pouquíssimos exemplos que sobreviveram, porque a maioria dos mobiliários de prata do período foi fundida para recuperar o metal precioso. Esta peça destaca-se por seu elegante perfil barroco, pela precisão da fundição e pelos entalhes finos. O ourives Simon Pantin foi um dos muitos artesãos franceses de ascendência protestante que se estabeleceram em Londres.
