Literature. The antique silver pap boat was originally used as a shallow feeding dish for a child or invalid. These appeared circa 1710 and fell out of manufacture about 120 years later. With their smooth elegant shape, they make ideal servers for sauce.

In very good condition.

Maker: Robert Gray & Son

Robert Gray was a Glasgow silversmith. Between 1784 and 1819 the Glasgow Assay office was closed, so during this time Gray had to send his goods to be tested and marked at the Edinburgh Assay office.
