Sorry, this item is out of stock.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a pap boat by the acclaimed Hester Bateman. This is a beautiful silver pap boat with the added bonus of having a bright-cut engraved rim around the top. The condition is excellent throughout with the added benefit of having clear hallmarks and a good example of the sought after "HB" maker's mark.

 

Pap boats were used to feed baby's and infants, and could also help feed invalids.
