Sotheby's Pair of German Jewelled Filigree Caskets

 


Sotheby's Pair of German Jewelled Silver Gilt and Silver Filigree Caskets.

22 May 2019. Lot 335.

Very poor photograph from the catalogue.



11 cms wide.

The catalogue entry is non committal.

I think probably South German, 17th /18th century.

It would obviously be useful to see better photographs of these objects - the lids appear to be cast and chased.
