LARGE 16" Reed & Barton 1627 KING FRANCIS Silverplate Punch Bowl w/ Ladle

Description

Estate - Hard to find - Vintage Antique Reed & Barton King Francis Large Silver Plate Punch Bowl. Magnificent statement piece. Set comes with large punch bowl and silverplated punch ladle. Bowl has a fruit grape & scroll design. Ladle was with it, but not sure it is the King Francis pattern. Bowl measures approx 16" across top and 11" high. Signed on the bottom "Reed & Barton - 1627 - King Francis". Took pictures inside and outside, with and without flash. Some Plating loss inside ladle and a couple of spots inside the bottom of the bowl along with some scratches from ladle.
The bowl wobbles a bit and it looks like a couple of dents underneath the bottom foot piece (see pictures).
Could use more polishing. I got tired.
This is a vintage antique used item and has scratches, tarnish, rubs, etc., consistent with age.
Pitting where it is signed underneath.
In spite of it's flaws it is still a gorgeous usable piece and will grace any
