Paul de Lamerie Artworks collected in Metmuseum

Paul de Lamerie (9 April 1688 – 1 August 1751) was a London-based silversmith. The Victoria and Albert Museum describes him as the "greatest silversmith working in England in the 18th century".  He was being referred to as the ‘King’s silversmith’ in 1717. Though his mark raises the market value of silver, his output was large and not all his pieces are outstanding. The volume of work bearing de Lamerie's mark makes it almost certain that he subcontracted orders to other London silversmiths before applying his own mark. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_de_Lamerie
