Dutch Engraved Brass Snuffbox, 1700s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Dutch engraved brass snuffbox from 1700, rectangular in shape with rounded corners, completely engraved on all sides; the edge with a graceful motif of scrolls decorated with foliage. The lid of this 18th century Dutch tobacco box bears an undeciphered inscription and five circular tableaux, medallions containing the busts of as many dignitaries with the relevant dated inscriptions, the most recent being from 1748.

The lower part is engraved with a gallery of characters behind a balustrade covered with heraldic coats of arms.

The snuffbox comes from a private collection and is in a good state of conservation regardless of the natural wear and tear due to the eighteenth century period and use.
