This gold snuffbox, crafted by Jacques Brillant between 1739 and 1740, is a fine example of Rococo style. The intricate, swirling design, featuring stylized figures and foliage, is typical of the period's emphasis on asymmetry and ornamentation. This small, yet finely detailed object, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, reflects the elegance and refinement of 18th-century French decorative arts.
