Description from the seller
Dubbel Janus Hoofd (1831-1868), Southern Netherlands (Flanders), circa 1859.
Gilded silver ciborium on a fluted round foot and baluster shaft, decorated with cartouches, foliage, and grapevines, ears of corn, and volutes. A vase-shaped knop with flutes. On the cup, cartouches featuring, among other things, a burning heart and symbols of faith, hope, and love amidst ears of corn and grapevines. The lid has a crowning with a fluted dome and Greek cross. Inspected on the foot. Donated in 1859 to a religious community affiliated with a Carolus-hospitium (hospital).

Seller's Story
Snackers Antiques & Fine Art
Based in Maastricht since 2020. Specialized in religious art.
Vincent Snackers is the owner of Snackers Antiques & Fine Art, he was very interested in the Catholic faith and all the rituals that go with it at a young age. Palaces and museums also fascinated him. Through collecting, he eventually started the store in 2020, and he continues to collect himself, because a beautiful 18th century cupboard or a pair of Empire candlesticks never gets boring.
It is always a nice challenge to find out the background of the object. And when the object then goes to a new owner who enjoys it, the circle is complete again.
