Two-Handled Cup and Cover, 1686. England, London, 17th century (James II). Silver gilt; overall: 23.9 x 32.4 cm (9 7/16 x 12 3/4 in.). Produced a year after the coronation of James II (1633-1701), this silver cup celebrates the monarchy and reflects the political and social alliances that underpinned the aristocracy during the 1600s. During their coronation, James II and his second wife Mary of Modena (1658-1718) were carried through the city of London under a silk canopy adorned with motifs inspired by European perceptions of Chinese art, known as chinoiserie. Following the procession, the thirty-two lords involved in the ceremony were each offered a portion of the cloth from the canopy as well as sixteen troy ounces of silver from the posts. At least two of them commissioned cups adorned with chinoiserie to be made from the silver. While it is unclear if this cup once belonged to one of the thirty-two peers, it was almost certainly created in response to the same motifs and social d

Pitcher 1850-60 American With the development of new formulas and techniques, glass-pressing technology had improved markedly by the late 1840s. By this time, pressed tablewares were being produced in large matching sets and innumerable forms. During the mid-1850s, colorless glass and simple geometric patterns dominated. Catering to the demand for moderately-priced dining wares, the glass industry in the United States expanded widely, and numerous factories supplied less expensive pressed glassware to the growing market. At the Exhibition of the Industry of All Nations at New Yorks Crystal Palace in 1853, for example, the New England Glass Company exhibited 130 pieces of one design, "consisting of bowls, tumblers, champagnes, wines, and jelly glasses." This object belongs to one such service. Although the glass manufactory is not known, the glassware is very typical of the large services that were very popular with Americas middle class in the nineteenth century.. Pitcher 5721

Vase with elephant-headed handles China 14th-15th century This elegant vase represents an aesthetic revolution in its creative reinterpretation of an ancient bronze vessel. Although its décor follows archaic models, its long flaring neck and bulbous body are unmistakable features of thirteenth to the fifteenth century ceramics. Furthermore, its two elephant-head handles reflect the influence of Buddhism during the period. In Chinese Buddhism, the elephant was identified as the vehicle of Samantabhadra, the Buddhist deity associated with religious practice and mediation. For Chan (Zen in Japanese) practitioners during the Mongol Yuan period, when many literati fled into Buddhist monasteries, this décor would have been particularly appropriate for a flower vase used in a Chan setting.

Tea Caddy c 1802 Hartford. The style of this tea set (1950.1584 and 1950.1648a-c) was a popular one in New York at the turn of the 19th century. The shapes and decoration of the set were inspired by classical Roman designs unearthed at Herculaneum and Pompeii during the 1730s, and reinterpretation of the finds were disseminated in the popular furniture designs of Thomas Sheraton and George Hepplewhite. The bright-cut engraving is typical of the period. The Van Voorhis pieces employ a large drapery swag as a background to the central motif containing engraved initials of the original owner. The companion tea caddy (1950.1585) was made later to match the three-piece set; though the engraving on the caddy looks the same as those on the rest of the set, close examination reveals that it is by a different hand..
