Anmerkung:

Germany, 17th century.

Silver; wrought, cast and engraved. Necklace younger.

Notes:
The “pomander“ (French pomme d'ambre, i.e. apple of amber) originates from a Jewish religious ceremony that involves a spice filled “besamim box“ and especially flourished in Christian tradition of the High Middle Ages. Numerous examples can be found in craft museums such as the Bayerische Nationalmuseum in Munich.
