Abraham Portal's 18th century sugar dish, bowl, and spoon set, crafted from 18k gold, is a remarkable example of Georgian-era goldware.
Originating from London England, this exquisite piece reflects the opulence and artistic sensibilities of the time.
The dish features intricate designs, showcasing Portal's exceptional skill in goldsmithing.
Its delicate engravings and ornate details exemplify the luxury and craftsmanship of Georgian tableware.
The use of 18k gold not only signifies wealth but also highlights the era's preference for extravagant dining accessories.
