EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite gilded silver Custody, adorned with precious stones, was presented to the monks of the Church of The Sapling in Amsterdam by the wealthy ladies of the city during the 18th century. The intricately designed object, created between 1782 and 1798, is a testament to the artistic and cultural richness of the Dutch Golden Age. The Custody, also known as Het Boompje or The Sapling, is a contemporary European masterpiece by the renowned French goldsmith Jacques Francois Joseph Lefebvre Caters. The silversmith's skillful hands transformed the simple object into a breathtaking work of art, with intricate decorations of diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and other precious stones. The Custody's history is deeply rooted in the religious and social fabric of Amsterdam during the late 18th century. The monks of The Sapling, a South Dutch monastery, were entrusted with the care of the sacred relic of the True Cross. The Custody was used to carry the relic during processions and ceremonies, making it a symbol of faith and devotion. The interior of the Catharijneconvent Museum in Utrecht, Netherlands, is home to this magnificent piece of European history. The museum, which was once a convent, is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the cultural heritage of the Netherlands. The Custody is just one of the many treasures that tell the story of the country's past, offering visitors a glimpse into the lives of the people who lived during the Dutch Golden Age. The delicate angles of the gilded silver, the sparkle of the precious stones, and the intricate decorations all come together to create a stunning work of art that continues to captivate and inspire visitors to this day.
