Imari Pattern double-handled boat, Lady in a Pavillion pattern. Chelsea C1750
About the Item
Double-handled boat in soft-paste porcelain, decorated with the Lady in a Pavillion pattern, the design and palette both after the Japanese examples of the period. Figure decoration is unusual in this period.
Double-handled sauce boats were a common item of tableware used in the 18th century. They were designed to hold and serve sauces, such as gravy or melted butter, and were often made of silver, pewter, or porcelain. The design of the double-handled sauce boat allowed for easy pouring of the sauce and also prevented the heat from the sauce from transferring to the hands of the person serving.
During the 18th century, dining was an important social event, and the presentation of food was a significant part of the experience. Sauce boats were often displayed on the table alongside other items of tableware, such as tureens and platters, as part of an elaborate table setting. The double-handled design of the sauce boat also made it easier for the person serving to pass the sauce around the table.
In addition to their functional use, sauce boats were often highly decorative and ornate. Many were embellished with intricate designs and engravings, and some were even decorated with precious stones. The popularity of the double-handled sauce boat ended around 1760; they were useful when dishes were passed around the table, but were replaced by single handled boats when it became normal for servants to present dishes to the diners.
