Large baluster-shaped pewter SAUPODER with pedestal, decorated with three gadroon friezes. The screw cap topped with an acorn is openworked with hearts, spades, diamonds and clovers arranged in rosettes.
Master's mark: angel holding a palm / BW / FIN.
Height: 19.5 cm
MULHOUSE, Early 18th century.
In perfect condition.
The Alsatian master's marks representing an angel holding a palm are all from Mulhouse. This unidentified master's mark has already been noted on a ewer, accompanied by that of Philippe II DOLLFUS active from 1718 to 1754 in Mulhouse. It is therefore very plausible that this BW master preceded Philippe II Dollfus.
Like the large earthenware, glass or porcelain sprinklers, those made of pewter are very rare and sought after. To my knowledge, this is the only pewter example of this type of object for this Alsatian center.
