Powder Flask
ca. 1665/66 | Johann Caspar Schenck
Ivory cups and tankards were also employed in princely representation during the Baroque period. These had no intended practical use. They were displayed on buffets at banquets, and otherwise stored in the cabinets of treasuries and kunstkammern. Their richly carved decoration shows subjects from antique mythology as well as contemporary genre scenes.
