George III Silver Teapot, London, 1773, Edward Darvill, maker, cylindrical, with straight spout, rattan-wrapped ear handle, flat lid with carved ivory pineapple finial, the body engraved with a continuous scene of 18th century ladies visiting townspeople, ht. 5 in., approx. 10 troy oz. lid finial with a few chips, and a little loose on bolt. wear to seam of top surface to body to right of handle. overall age wear, and some wear to crispness of engraving. marks on body OK; lion passant struck twice, with one worn. lid not marked. Per Beth Carver Wees's book "English, Irish, & Scottish Silver at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute," New York, 1997, the engraving on one side depicts "The Hermit," a scene taken from an engraving by Nicolas de Larmessin after a lost painting by Nicolas Vleughels (1668-1755) titled "Frere Luce." This teapot is very similar to one in the Clark Institute's collection (museum #1963.165), pictured as figure 236 in Wees' book.
