Toy Saucepan, Tea Set and Cover Silver, Wooden Handles, Fabric 1720-1750 The Victoria & Albert Museum |
Crafted of silver and wood, this set features small versions of a traditional tea set in addition to a cozy, a saucepan and, oddly, a silver swan. Curiously, this set of objects was intended to be buried with their owner who passed away as a small child. It was taken from her casket before burial.
