An early 19th century Italian silver-gilt mounted and micromosaic boxmark to interior partially visible DP, probably for Domenico Piazzoli (FL. 1804 - 1827), Rome, circa 1820Rectangular red marble box with silver-gilt mounts, the hinged cover set with rectangular micromosaic panel depicting the Pantheon within a silver-gilt frame, length 8cm x 6cm x 1.9cm.Footnotes:The Pantheon, dedicated to all Roman gods and perhaps one of the best preserved examples of antique Roman architecture was built by the Emperor Hadrian over the ruins of another temple around 125AD. However, although it was converted to a Christian church as early as 609AD, by this time almost all of the marble and metal fittings and statues had been looted from its interior. The plundering of the both internal and external fixtures and fittings continued with the Emperor Constans II (r. 641-668AD) who also removed the bronze dome and then finally with Pope Urban VIII who pulled out many tons of bronze portico beams which were used for St. Peter's Baldacchino and also for new cannons for the Castel Sant'Angelo.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Chilton/C. Lehner-Jobst (eds.), Fired by Passion (2009), cat. no. 365). This is the only example to survive with its tamper and original leather case, and the exceptionally rich decoration of this box suggests that it could have been a special commission or gift.The chinoiserie panels on this example are related to the style of decoration developed at Meissen by J.G. Höroldt - formerly of the Du Paquier manufactory - from around 1720. In some cases, the Du Paquier painters appear to have copied Meissen chinoiserie decoration directly. Meissen porcelain with polychrome decoration is known to have been in Vienna after 1723 so it is possible that aristocratic patrons provided models to Du Paquier in order to commission similar work from the Viennese manufactory (for a discussion of the mutual influences between Meissen and Du Paquier, see J. Lessmann, Du Paquier and Meissen: Inspiration and Competition, in M. Chilton/C. Lehner-Jobst (eds.), Fired by Passion, I (2009), ch. 5, and fig. 5:53 for a Du Paquier vase with chinoiserie panels painted by the same hand. Claudia Lehner-Jobst has noted (in J. Kräftner (ed.), Baroque Luxury Porcelain (2005), no. 57) the similarity of this style of decoration to that of the Meissen painter, J.E. Stadler.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
