Table bell with acanthus leaves, The bell-shaped bell has a baluster-shaped stem with a spherical knob. Along the underside of the bell runs a smooth profile with above it an engraved edge of two flung ribbons for a band with a sling line against a background hatched in gloss stitch. This edge is flanked by narrower bands with similar hatching. The upper part of the bubble is driven with two layers of acanthus leaves superimposed on each other. Along the top and bottom of the cast handle, edges are added in gloss stitch, over the widest part there are two, flanking a band with a winding line. Stem and bud are separated by a constricted connection, the lower part of which shows twisted cannelures. The spherical button is decorated with a zigzag line on the top and bottom and is crowned by a curved, rejuvenating, fluted base with a ball., Johannes Schiotling, Amsterdam, 1778, silver (metal), h 14.9 cm × d 8.9 cm × w 282 gr
