This "Toilet Box with Key" is a fine example of Rococo style silverwork, created by German silversmith Friedrich Schwestermuller II between 1738 and 1750. The piece is ornamented with intricate engraved floral patterns and displays the characteristic asymmetry and fluid curves of the Rococo period. The box, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York, is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the 18th century.
