A Unique Lacquer Casket with Tea Utensils, Formerly the Property of Empress Maria Theresa
Original language description
A unique lacquer casket with tea utensils was recently discovered in a private collection and according to information on the bottom of one agate cup it belonged to the Empress Maria Theresa. The object is a prime example of applied art from that period,combining a Japanese lacquer casket, produced for the European market by Kyoto lacquer craftsmen, and a European tea set of three flasks and a goblet. The porcelain, flasks were created in the Viennese porcelain manufactory headed by Claudius Innocentius du Paquier probably around 1720. The set of flasks is accompanied by a translucent agate goblet, set into gold mountings with two handles. The underside of the goblet has an engraved inscription informing us that the caskets was a possession of the Empress Maria Theresa. It is well known that Maria Theresa owned a collection of oriental lacquer art unique within central Europe, which she later gave to her daughter Marie Antoinette, and it is likely that this piece was part of that set.
