Snuffbox 1750-51 Jean Moynat In eighteenth-century Europe, Paris led the production of high-quality luxury goods. Parisian goldsmiths made a wide range of small, personal articles such as snuffboxes; étuis to hold sealing wax, tweezers, or utensils for sewing; souvenirs, which contained thin ivory tablets for note taking; and shuttles for knotting lace. Gold snuffboxes and boxes decorated with portrait miniatures were prized and frequently given as royal gifts, often to ambassadors or members of the court in lieu of cash payments for their services. Coveted and admired, these boxes were produced from a variety of materials. The best were skillfully made of gold and embellished with diamonds, enameled decoration, lacquer, and other luxurious materials. By the middle of the century, the taking of snuff had become an entrenched social ritual, and the snuffbox, too, had become an important social prop. Snuffboxes were considered highly fashionable accessories, with some merchants advertisi

Basin, early 17th century, 3 x 18 x 18 in. (7.6 x 45.7 x 45.7 cm), Pewter with gilt and brass decoration, China, 17th century, Large metal washbasins supported on wooden stands must have been common in prosperous Ming dynasty households. This one, with its shaped flange rim and gilt decorated interior, is rather luxurious. The rim is embellished with a variety of potted flowers while the floor of the vessel is decorated with a gilded scene of a lady, her maid, and a gentleman in a garden-like setting. The figures seem to float on clouds amongst flowering trees and terraced pavilions. Through the center an arched tree appears sprouted with several cloud-shaped 'sacred fungi' called ling-chih, a plant symbolic of immortality.

Caddinet. Culture: German, Augsburg. Dimensions: Overall (confirmed): 3 1/8 x 9 3/4 x 8 3/8 in., 35.778oz. (7.9 x 24.8 x 21.3 cm, 1014.3g). Maker: Attributed to Gottlieb Menzel (1676-1757, master 1709). Date: 1718.The caddinet was reserved for the sovereign and his immediate family. The instructions for setting the table for a banquet at Dresden Palace on September 3, 1719, read: "On the table is to be placed in front . of the king and the . queen the so-called caddinet, . in which are salt, pepper, and other spices in diverse compartments." The tray held the private royal cutlery and a specially folded napkin that covered bread rolls; hence the object's name BrodtTeller (bread tray) in contemporary inventories. Augustus the Strong (1670-1733) must have seen this rare expression of royal etiquette in use at the court in Versailles, where he visited in 1687. The pagoda-shaped lids recall the roof line of the king's summer palace, Pillnitz, near Dresden, introducing a touch of the e

Round Covered Box, 17th century, 3 5/16 x 6 11/16 x 6 11/16 in. (8.4 x 17 x 17 cm), Painted lacquer with 'filled-in' decoration (tian-ch'i), China, 17th century, Densely patterned with painted polychrome lacquer, this small round box is rich in traditional Chinese symbolism. Inspired by repeat patterns found in silk brocades, the top is painted with auspicious yellow chrysanthemum flower heads within hexagons outlined in black interspersed with small swastikas. The side is engraved with three shou characters and ling-chih fungus lacquered in green and brown representing long life. There is a border of swastika trellis pattern on the rims. The swastika, a rebus for ten thousand, can be seen as a sort of multiplier for the shou and ling chih longevity symbols increasing the wish for a long life ten thousand times. Painted below the borders in green, brown, and black lacquer can be found the Eight Buddhist Emblems with the foot rim painted in a similar palette with lotus petal panels, a s
