ANTIQUE #SA1098370

French Silver Salts, By Denis Jean Andres Garreau, 1818-1838

£135    $172    €162
A pair of Louis Philippe French silver salts, chased with acanthus and reeded borders, and two original blue liners.
 
The silver salts present two sets of hallmarks. The first, is a Minerva head with the letter P, used for silver made during the French revolution, between 1793 and 1794, and some time afterwards. The second, is a Poincon Au Viellard nr 1 (used for .950 standard silver) which suggests that the silver salts were made between 1818 and 1838. The maker is Denis Jean Andres Garreau, working in Paris at 62, rue du Temple. The symbol is a small boat with two men inside above the maker’s initials, D and G.
