Object description:

The tureen is made in pewter in Rococo style, faithfully transmitting stylistic elements applied in goldsmithing to a more accessible material, pewter. This manner became so dominant in the 18th century that in the references today it is called pewter in the manner of silver, or “Zinn nach Silberart”, and includes the application of expressive Rococo elements, concave and convex lines and surfaces characteristic in the shaping of luxury silver bowls and services. Pewter tableware, bowls, plates and other things prevailed in this period in the Baroque and Rococo, but it was to be replaced in everyday use in the first decades of the 19th century by the more accessible stoneware and later by china.
