Snuffbox 1740 - 1755

This small, delicately crafted snuffbox was created by the Capodimonte Porcelain Manufactory in Naples, Italy, between 1740 and 1755. Its lid features a painted portrait of a woman, possibly a noble patroness, holding a quill pen and leaning towards an elaborate inkwell. The interior is adorned with a lavish arrangement of seashells and floral motifs, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship of the factory. This exquisite example of Rococo porcelain is a testament to the artistry and refined taste of the 18th century.
