"Boekslot van zilver" (Book Clasp of Silver) is a silver clasp, crafted in 1779 by Albertus Antonius Rooswinkel. The intricate design features a central motif of a lion's head surrounded by ornate, swirling designs, reminiscent of the Rococo style popular during the 18th century. The clasp's elegant form and finely detailed work exemplifies the craftsmanship of the period. This piece is a testament to the dedication and skill of Dutch silversmiths who created functional yet beautiful objects for daily use.
