18th century
Mark with a crowned C.
Height : 22,5 cm
(Wear of the silvering and distorted frieze).
The mark with the crowned C, defined thanks to the research of Henri Nocq, corresponds to a tax paid on bronzes and coppers between 1745 and 1749. The edict of February 1745 specifies that it applies to "all old and new works of bronze, pure copper, cast iron, mixed copper, forged, ground, beaten, flattened, engraved, gilded, silvered and colored, without any exception".
The hallmark must appear on any work of copper metal executed or sold during these four years, it concerns "any old or new work", one thus finds it on parts before 1745.
