    Unusual potpourri ornaments in silver from the late 18th century.

    It is stamped with the Copenhagen city emblem, the three towers, the stadsguardein mark for Frederik Fabricius and the master mark for Bendix Johan Schnee. Bendix Johan Schnee was born around 1771 and obtained citizenship in Copenhagen in 1796 and died as early as 1822. Several of his works are exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts and the Carlsberg Foundation has acquired several that are in storage at, among others, the National Museum. It is in good condition with very few marks on the lid knob and the body itself.

    Due to the small holes, we cannot imagine this is for sugar, even though sugar was not what we know today in the past.
