This handsome flagon was used primarily for exhibition or ceremonial use. Although of a type related to the flagons of the Silesian school, especially in Breslau - several examples of which are extant - this particular flagon bears the town mark of Villach, located in present-day southern Austria. It has also been suggested that the piece was made in Lüneburg, in northern Germany, and subsequently marked in Villach. Whatever the place of origin, the high qualify of the engraving of the figures (derived in the style from the Master E.S.), the lack of wear, and particularly the nonutilitarian nature of the fantastic late Gothic braided handle, although designed for drinking, was ordinarily displayed on a cupboard..

Although they could have been used in an outdoor context, they are representative of the more compact form of the horn that appeared with increasing frequency in orchestras in the first decades of the 18th century. It is likely that Handels horn players, most of whom hailed from Germany, would have played the Water Music on instruments similar to this. Made from brass and pitched in 16 foot D, this pair of horns is identical in all details of design and construction. The bell and mouthpiece receiver stays are fashioned of flat metal. The flange of the bell stay is cut in an elongated cup shape. The body tubing of the instruments is coiled 3 ½ times. The two horns are wound identically, with the mouthpiece receiver on the left-hand side of the tubing when the horns are held in playing position, thus the instruments are "right handed" (although they coulSpice box - GINGER Patent Package Co.
