Silver punch bowl made by Andrew Ellicott Warner, Jr., c 1875. Raised, engraved, cast. This large punch bowl, on a square pedestal base, is decorated with raised swags of foliage suspended from ribbons that encircle the bowl, which are echoed in the base and along the top rim of the bowl. Cast lion heads with ring handles were applied to the sides of the punch bowl. The cast feet are a variation of ball and claw with winged paw feet resting on top of orbs. A cast and applied unicorn’s head on one side of the bowl is the crest of the Carrington family which had family members in Maryland by 1812.
