Sauce bowl in shell shape with three legs and ear, Sauce bowl of silver. The oval bowl rests on three legs in the form of crested motifs. In the longitudinal direction of the body a pattern is driven of parallel curved corrugated ridges with which the appearance of a shell is suggested. To this is attached a flat ear made of volutes, decorated with a helmeted herm. On the other short side of the upper edge there is a shallow snout-shaped mouth, which on the outside is decorated with curled volutes above a mask that ends in a crested motif., Hendrik Fortman, Leiden, 1767, silver (metal), h 10.
