A silver ladle features a deep, rounded bowl and an upright handle covered in intricate relief. At the top, a seated female figure rests within ornate scrolling motifs. Below her, a winged child appears above a small human face. Flowing foliage and scrollwork wind down the stem, transitioning into a textured pattern of downward-pointing leaves near the bowl. The metallic gray surface exhibits darker tarnish and a small hallmark stamp inside the basin.
