"Ladle In Brass. Decor Of 5 Crowned Hearts. Late 18th-early 19th Century."
Long stretched shank and forged spoon. The hooked spatula, enlarged by hammering, is decorated with 5 crowned insculpted hearts. Some neophytes link this type of symbol without reason either to the Chouannerie, or even more laughable, as a sign of royal or princely property ... These are only fallacious speculations, and the dinandier was more likely attached to the sign of the reign of the everlasting love. As for the use: do amateurs differ between cream or honey? Origin: BASSE-NORMANDIE. Length: 43.3 cm. Diameter: 7 cm. Late 18th-early 19th century. Very good condition. Free shipping by COLISSIMO for mainland France.
