Dienblad 1752

Arnoldus van Geffen's "Dienblad" (1752) is a silver tray with five small goblets and a pitcher, representing a typical Dutch drinking set from the 18th century. The elaborate design and craftsmanship showcase the skills of the silversmith during the Rococo period. This miniature set, measuring only 5.6 cm in width and depth, demonstrates the artistry of van Geffen, whose work focused on smaller decorative pieces. The piece is a testament to the Dutch tradition of fine silverware and elaborate drinking rituals.
