Catalogue Note
Le poinçon au C couronné fut utilisé sur tout article en bronze doré créé ou vendu entre mars 1745 et février 1749.
La porcelaine est contemporaine de la monture. La présence d'un émail stannifère ainsi que les branches fleuries en relief, qui ont pour source l'exotisme japonais et les décors en relief exécutés à Meissen dans les années 1720, permettent de situer cette caisse autour de 1745.
