A LOUIS XVI DOUBLE-OPENING JEWELLED GOLD-MOUNTED HARDSTONE BOITE-A-MOUCHES
MAKER'S MARK INDISTINCT, POSSIBLY J H, PARIS, 1784/1785, WITH THE SECOND CHARGE AND DECHARGE MARKS OF HENRI CLAVEL 1783-1789
Rectangular box, the cover set with a panel of glazed interwoven hair applied with raised intertwined pearl and turquoise set gothic initials LG, the sides and hinged base set with panels of blue-coloured aventurine quartz within chased vari-colour gold foliate borders, the cover set with a mirror, the interior fitted with an oblong similarly decorated hinged compartment, the base with a shallow compartment for patches and set with a mirror, in fitted shagreen case
2 1/8 in. (52 mm.) wide
The initials LG are most probably for Louise-Claudine Grand (1745-1796), second daughter of Isaac-Jean-Georges-Jonas Grand (ca. 1715-1793), who was Baron d'Esnon, Count of Premartin and Bourgogne, and banker to the French court in Amsterdam.
注意事項
Prospective purchasers are advised that several countries prohibit the importation of property containing materials from endangered species, including but not limited to coral, ivory and tortoiseshell. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should familiarize themselves with relevant customs regulations prior to bidding if they intend to import this lot into another country. These lots have been imported from outside the EU for sale using a Temporary Import regime. Import VAT is payable (at 5%) on the Hammer price. VAT is also payable (at 20%) on the buyer’s Premium on a VAT inclusive basis. When a buyer of such a lot has registered an EU address but wishes to export the lot or complete the import into another EU country, he must advise Christie's immediately after the auction.
