For sale is this small, almost miniature, Guild of Handicraft silver sauce boat. It is fully hallmarked for London 1905. I am not quite sure whether it is an individual sauce boat, perhaps once part of a set, or an apprentice piece, or both. It is marginally too large a piece to be for a doll’s house. Irrespective, it exudes charm, with very fine hand hammering and lovely patina. Near perfect condition.
