Thank you very much! Your assessment, based on the links you've provided, is most probably correct. Based on that, this piece dates ca. mid to late 1800s. I thought it was of earlier manufacture, based on the faithful rendition of the Baroque bucolic subject matter, but after looking at some fine Hanau-made silver I have no doubt that it is of a date later than I originally envisioned.
Thanks again!
