The red hand between the initials under the crest indicates this service was ordered by the third son of the grantee, also Robert (1750-1830) who was granted a baronetcy in 1800. The service was probably commissioned soon afterwards to mark his elevation to baronet. It was his son, the future British Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel (1788-1850), who inherited the baronetcy in 1830 together with, presumably, this service.A slop bowl, teapot stand and sucrier from this service and bearing the Peel crest were also offered by Bonhams on 10 December 2008, lots 233-235. However, the present lot is the only piece known showing the gilt cipher, appearing on both sides of the tureen and the stand underneath each crest.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
