Description
Good Set of Four George III Sterling Silver Sauce Tureens, hallmarked London, 1778-1779, by Henry Greenway, each of oval form, with beaded rim, arched reeded handles, fitted domed lid with urn-form finial and raised on a conforming foot, engraved on the body with the arms of Rouse-Boughton, h. 5-1/4", l. 9", w. 4-1/4", 74.84 total t. oz.. The arms here are those of Sir Charles William Rouse-Bougton (1747-1821), Baronet of Rouse Lench from 1791 and of Lawford from 1794. He served in several administrative and judicial positions in the East India Company from 1765, returning to England in 1778, where he was elected M.P. for Evesham 1780-1790 and for Bramber 1796-1800. Sir Charles' story was presented in a 2010 episode of BBC2's Who Do You Think You Are? featuring his direct descendant, British comedian Alexander Armstrong. For other items of Rouse-Boughton's silver, see Christie's London Sale 5513, November 22, 1995, lots 92, 93 and 101.
