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,Sculpture from a car people in Delphi, Frédéric Boissonnas, c. 1905 - In or Before 1910 photomechanical print DelphiBerlin paper collotype charioteer, 'auriga'. sculpture DelphiVivatband, Vivat the nationwide , a world of enemies opposite , official band for the Red Cross, the war aid office, the war welfare office, draftA sash from the celebration of the hundredth anniversary of Adam Mickiewicz's birthMilledBordersA sash from the funeral of Adam Mickiewicz in Krakow on July 4, 1890
