"Enamelled Gold Case With Miniatures – Switzerland, Late 18th Century"

Remarkable 18-carat gold case, entirely decorated with polychrome enamel and painted miniatures.
Both sides reveal a refined iconography mixing female figures, landscaped scenes and floral motifs.
Each scene delicately framed with blue enamel and punctuated with fine pearls.

This type of luxury object, typical of Genevan know-how at the end of the 18th century, was intended for a cosmopolitan aristocratic clientele. It testifies to the exceptional mastery of Swiss enamelers and miniaturists.

Work from the end of the 18th century, Switzerland, probably Geneva
