Three Pieces from a Toilet set at Burghley



Three Pieces from a Mid / Late 17th Century Toilet set at Burghley.

Silver Gilt Filigree.





They say " The set comprises: a pair of circular dishes with octagonal feet, 20.3cm, an oblong casket, 14cm and a pair of mounted crystal vases, 12cm. The crystal has replaced what would originally have been either a gourd or a nut".
