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 aSofa mid-18th century Tapestry woven at Aubusson. Sofa 210460Breastplate ca. 1650 Italian, possibly Savoy. Breastplate.

Box 204748Side chair (voyeuse) 1780-90 Attributed to Sulpice Brizard Gambling was ubiquitous during the ancien régime, as evidenced in paintings and engravings of the period, and gaming was central to the social rituals of the court and the nobility. This painted and gilded side chair is of a type made especially for use during a gaming session. Known as voyeuse or viewer, these chairs were produced in a variety of different models depending on the gender of the occupant. With its high saddle-shaped seat, this chair was designed for a male spectator. Straddling it backward, he could rest his arms on the padded top rail of the chair back and watch the game unfold as well as allowing him to view the hand of a player. The chair is attributed to Sulpice Brizard (master 1762-98) and was originally part of a larger ensemble of seat furniture: two armchairs and a small settee (marquise) from the same set are also in The Mets collection (41.100.346; 69.102.1-.2)..

Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Museo Civico Treasures: these objects (Tesoro del Pio Istituto della SS. Annunziata and Tesoro della Cattedrale) are now housed in the security vault of a bank, not in the Museo Civico, as noted in Hutzel's photo campaign notes of August 1984. Views of the treasures include: a silver processional cross (14th century); gold, silver and enamel chalice (13th century), gold and silver crosier with sculpted figures depicting the Annunciation (13th century), a silver and gold reliquary with glass (13th century), a silver diadem (13th century), and a box-like silver and gold reliquary (15th century). German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death. The result of this project, referred to by Hutzel as Foto Arte Minore, is thorough documentation of art historical development in Italy up to the 18th century, including objects of the Etruscans and the Romans, as welOrnament with Child andLotusThis silver symbol is portion of the Courtney International Goodwill Rugby League trophy and portrays the clasped hands of goodwill and Flanders poppies.

Pineapple cup (Hanap) 187161Pair of gravyboats 1768-69 John Kentesber Modest though these sauceboats seem in both scale and form, their simplicity was planned to suggest the classical askos, a container for liquids. In antiquity the askos was made from a whole goatskin and had, naturally, a swelling, bulging shape and a drawnup neck, all in one piece. Already in antiquity the form was mimicked in metal. The sauceboats are thus examples of the arrival in silver of the Neoclassical taste, which not long before in England had captured the interest of architects and their clients. The feet and handles, however, are carryovers from the earlier Rococo style.. Pair of gravyboats 208873Fragment 13th century. Fragment. 13th century. Stonepaste; underglaze painted.
