This print showcases two exquisite gold snuffboxes, each with its own unique charm and intricate detailing. The top box is a true masterpiece, adorned with various stones and featuring a stunning cornelian cameo at its center. Crafted by the renowned J. C. Neuber of Dresden, this piece exudes elegance and sophistication. The bottom box, created by an anonymous German artist from the 18th century, boasts a vibrant green translucent enamel background embellished with rococo scrollwork and delicate flowers. Amongst this ornate backdrop are groups of figures that add depth to the design. Both snuffboxes epitomize the artistry and craftsmanship of their time, showcasing elaborate decorative elements that were highly sought after during the era. These boxes were not merely functional containers but rather symbols of status and refinement.
