Salvilla. Silver. Valladolid, Spain, Antonio Ampudia, 1791. With contrast and engraving marks. Silver-colored salver with legs and a top plate featuring a mitered curved profile that creates sharp edges at the rim. It displays contrasting and engraved marks. The hallmarks on the coins correspond to that of Valladolid Corte, to the hallmark of the assayer Antonio González Téllez used in 1791, and to that of a silversmith likely named Antonio Ampudia or de Ampudia. Antonio González Téllez (1720-1778) worked as an assayer in Valladolid between 1743 and 1774/78, and works by him dated after those provided are known. It is worth noting that he had two relatives with the same surname who worked as silversmiths in the same city (one being Eustasio González Téllez). Antonio Ampudia was a silversmith who worked in Valladolid, and works by him from the last quarter of the 18th century and the first decade of the 19th century are known (cruets from the parish church of San Millán de Baltanás, etc.). Weight: 802 grams.
