This object for the dining table is part of a vast service made for Emperor Napoleon Bonaparteís sister Pauline on the occasion of her marriage to the Roman nobleman Camillo Borghese, Sixth Prince of Sulmona.In the years after the French Revolution, architects and designers adopted the visual language of ancient Greece and Rome to express the new imperial order. Napoleon, hoping to promote Parisís luxury trades, commissioned several silver dinner services as gifts to be sent abroad. The slender outlines and smooth surfaces of the objects in the Borghese service contrast with the rich decoration.. Silver-gilt, repoussÈ, cast, applied and chased decoration, gilt bronze .

The candlestick is composed of two parts: the foot and the trunk with the candle holder. The trunk with the holder are poured into two vertical halves, of which the casting seams can still be seen on both sides. The flat square foot has a hollow beveled corners and is equipped with a slightly raised round edge. Thus, this part can serve as a fat catcher. The trunk has a knot and a baluster to be added to the top, which repeats the profile in cross-section of the foot. The cylindrical candle holder has an excellent upright edge.. The form of this spice box is most likely derived from a silver model. It must have been an extremely stylish object, which, moreover, was painted according to the latest fashion with blue and manganese purple chinoiserie motifs.Covered Sugar Bowl.

Date: porcelain mid-18th century, mounts ca. 1740-50.These blue green celadon vases bear the Chinese character shou ("long life") in low relief. Originally taller, the vases were cut down and mounted in Paris with scrolled and pierced handles, lip, and base. The mounts have been compared to work by Jean-Claude Duplessis père (ca. 1695-1774), a talented goldsmith, gilt-bronze worker, and porcelain designer. Duplessis's name occurs regularly in the livre-journal (account book) of the dealer Lazare Duvaux from 1748 to 1758. In September 1750, for instance, Duvaux sold the marquis de Voyer d'Argenson a pair of large celadon-porcelain vases mounted by Duplessis in gilt bronze for three thousand livres. This exceptionally high price indicates that the vases must have been of great importance, just like the Museum's pair.

Although its décor and form follow archaic models, its heavily gilded surface enriches its appearance and sets it apart from being simply a replica of an ancient bronze prototype. The finely patterned ground on its body and feet, which is not found on ancient bronzes, further demonstrates the creative innovation and sophisticated craftsmanship of the bronze artist who created it..

Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Reliquary second half 19th century After a design by Reinhold Vasters German The cult of relics was an integral part of Catholic devotion from early in the Christian era. Relics of the Passion of Christ (the events leading up to the Crucifixion), as well as those associated with numerous saints and martyrs, were prized by churches and pious individuals throughout western Europe and Byzantium. Believers in the miraculous power of relics promoted a sumptuous form of artwork by commissioning resplendent cases to surround the often miniscule fragments. Sometimes the framework would echo the source of the relic (an arm, a foot, a head). In other instances, relics were preserved in containers of more traditional form. Jewels containing relics served as gestures of piety as well as displays of personal wealth. Such devotional ornaments became especially popular in early-seventeenth-century Spain, where sumptuary laws restricted most nonreligious personal adornment.

Later, it was part of the collection of the Princes of Thurn and Taxis in Sankt Emmeram Castle in Regensburg, Germany. Giardini's prized devotional objects were intended for private use or for small, intimate chapels. Their technical perfection is such that they outshine many fine works made in Rome during the same period. The combination of the light catching gilded metal and the lapis lazuli with its myriad flecks of sparkling golden pyrites has a mesmerizing effect. Lapis lazuli symbolizes the choir of saints in heaven, and the attention of the person using this stoup would be directed toward heaven, a treasury of everlasting joy.
