Louis Houzeaux soup tureen
A fine pewter soup tureen, struck on the base with punches depicting a naturalistic rose and a monogrammed helmet “LH” for Louis Houzeaux.

This tureen features scrolling, delicately chased handles with mask decorations. Its lid is topped with a Louis XVI pinecone finial resting on a stylized maple leaf.
The catfish-shaped feet are also nicely worked
