19th-century Miniature Silver Enamel Sled
A decorative miniature sleigh, crafted from worked silver and polychrome enamel, resting on a fabric-covered base. The sleigh, richly openworked, is adorned with floral motifs in multicolored enamel, cabochons, and finely chiseled decoration.
It is pulled by two silver horses, driven by a coachman depicted at the front, forming a particularly detailed and refined composition. The piece evokes the historicist taste for precious objects and ceremonial miniatures, particularly in the tradition of Viennese silversmiths from the second half of the 19th century.
