The present lot is not engraved with a crest or coat-of-arms, however the 1927 Leicester-Warren sale also included a pair of small oval trays also by Paul de Lamerie, which were engraved with the contemporary arms of Leicester for the 4th baronet, which suggests that the kettle may have been commissioned by him.
