Getting started with the collection:
Jug
anoniem, c. 1600
Italy was long the centre of rock crystal production. The great demand for expensive tableware led to the creation of workshops for rock-crystal objects outside of Italy. The thickness of the wall of this jug is typical of the objects produced outside Italy, and the large masks are typical for the workshops in Paris around 1600.
