George I Silver Brandy Warmer by Paul de Lamerie

Paul de Lamerie's mastery of his craft is displayed in this fine George I silver brandy warmer. Crafted in a well-balanced baluster form, this single-handled pot was used to warm brandy, which was done to release the different flavors and aromas of the spirit. A turned, wooden handle provides insulation from the heat, completing this design that is both elegant and functional.
