Description from the seller

Silver Dutch pyxis

Carolus van Dockum
Breda, 1704
90 grams, 5.3 cm high

The pyxis consists of two cylindrical boxes with grooved edges and removable lids. The larger one below has a gilded interior. The lid is engraved with sun rays around the smaller box placed on top. The lid of the smaller box is slightly domed with a circular flat top. Fully inspected at the back and equipped with a inspection stripe.

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.
