A good example of a particularly large silver brandy warming pan dating from the second half of the 19th Century. The pan has a pouring spout and a turned ebonised handle. It has engraved initials on the front which look like JQ. It is an impressive piece and very well made, weighing approximately 625g.
It has the French 'Minerve' head mark for Silver and a diamond shaped maker's mark on the base which looks like E.F with a serpent between.
It is in good condition for its age. There are no major damages and it displays very well. There is a small dink in the side (see photo) and some other small signs of age and use. There are some faint surface marks and light scratches inside but nothing detrimental. The handle is in excellent condition. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
