Gorgeous 18th Century Antique French Silver Sugar Sifter Spoon By LA Taillepied
A Lovely and Delicate Antique French Silver Sugar Sifter Spoon dating to between 1762 and 1768 by Louis Antoine TAILLEPIED.
The Spoon is cut out in what has been called The Type 4 ‘Reperce’ one of the most delicate of the Parisian models, with the center part showing a ‘larmes & tulipes’ (Or tears and tulips) motif.
