Large oval box (one of a pair)
Not on view
The boxes and accoutrements of a toilet service were often made for stock; so, rather than being specially commissioned, a service might be assembled from pieces that were already on the shelf. The whole was usually supplied in a fitted leather case; as a household moved from country to city for the annual season, they transported their silver as well. Gottlieb Satzger was a younger brother of Johann Martin Satzger I, who marked the smaller boxes of the same model.
