This elegant gold box, created by the young English silversmith John Parker in the 18th century, is a fine example of the craftsmanship of the era. The box, one of a pair, features a detailed engraved design on its lid and intricate molding along its edges. Parker, who sadly died at the age of 18, produced this box during the period of his most creative output. The box is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
