About this work
The stylistic idiom of this richly decorated pot is typical for silver from the province of Friesland. Inhabitants of Amsterdam or The Hague would have thought such a piece very old-fashioned around 1760. The small town of Stavoren did not have its own assay office; the pot has been marked in Sneek.
