Theebus 1731

"Theebus", a silver tea caddy, is a fine example of Dutch silversmithing from the 18th century. Created by Jacob Groeneweg in 1731, the caddy is a small, bulbous vessel with an elegant lid and intricate repoussé decoration. The silver, which is polished to a high sheen, displays an elaborate floral motif, a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the period. The caddy's size and intricate design make it a significant work of decorative art.
