This precious artifact was later gifted to Vice Admiral Kerr by Hardy's widow on January 23rd, 1840. The delicate carving and intricate plaque further enhance its antique allure. The photograph beautifully captures every intricate detail of this historical treasure, allowing viewers to appreciate its craftsmanship and rich heritage.
