Snuffbox 1765 - 1770

This oval porcelain snuffbox, created by the Real Fabrica de Buen Retiro between 1765 and 1770, is a fine example of Spanish decorative arts from the 18th century. The lid is decorated with a charming pastoral scene, featuring figures in a landscape, while the base depicts a building in a rural setting. These painted designs, characteristic of Buen Retiro's work, reflect the Rococo style popular at the time. This small, intricately detailed snuffbox is a testament to the craftsmanship of Spanish porcelain production during this period.
