The silver-plated sauce boat with crossed ribbons was designed in 1950. The edges of its base are discreetly decorated with ribbon bow motifs, while its double spout remains modest and harmonious. This apparent simplicity, enhanced by these discreet and harmonious details, shows that this sauce boat was designed in the Louis XVI style.
