Silver, cast, chased and engraved with an elegantly curved, carved handle. Marked with Liège inspection for 1784-1792 and the additional stamp with the coat of arms of Prince-Bishop Caesar Constantin Franz von Hoensbroech (1724-1792, Prince-Bishop since 1784).
The extravagant, deeply bulbous shape of the jug looks very modern and is complemented by high-quality borders, garlands and rosettes.
The unusual lid knob in the form of an exotic fruit underlines the exquisite taste of the wealthy client.
