enameled silver goblet with gemstones
Posted: Wed Apr 24, 2019 11:30 am
This is my first post since a long time and please excuse my rusty English…
The height of this beauty is 19cm and it is partially enamelled and different stones are attached
At the foot turquoise I recognize and underneath the shell-shaped bowl probably grenade?
And at the front of the leg a rock crystal and on the sides peridot or tourmaline? I’m not sure about all this …the skirt of the lady shows remains of gilding
Is this a piece of historicism? I can not find a comparable piece although I have been trying for a long time…
What it is the function remains a mystery to me … salt bowl or caviar?
I’m not 100% sure if it’s of German origin. There are unfortunately no hallmarks at all but I'm quite sure it is silver
Can someone tell me if I am right with the origin. And help with the age and purpose....?
I would be happy if I could get a little help here
Thanks a lot
Yours monkey
