Handleless, rectangular, rounded-bottom bowl on a rectangular, stepped pedestal base with applied reeded molding for foot. A wide, die-rolled band of grapevine and oak branch decoration is at rim above a raised lower body with bulbous upper half and two overlapping rows of chased points around bottom. Underside of body is struck with four hallmarks, but no maker's mark; centerpunch visible. One end of base underside is struck with seller's mark and incised with weight. From a four-piece service, DL*383361-DL*383363A-B.
Hallmarks appear to be those for Chester, England, in 1814, although there is no town mark. Sellers are Liberty Browne (1776-1831) and William Seal (active, circa 1810-circa 1822) of Philadelphia, PA; in partnership, circa 1810-1811.
