Country of origin Although it bears no discernible control marks indicating its origin, there is a Dutch hallmark present, typically used for older items submitted for re-assessment. This does not guarantee it was actually made in the Netherlands. However, the 14K goldcontent could serve as an indicator, as this is a hallmark characteristic of Dutch craftsmanship, though it remains an uncertain attribution.
Style Rococo - Rococo (less commonly roccoco) also referred to as "Late Baroque" is an 18th century style which developed as Baroque artists gave up their symmetry and became increasingly more ornate, florid, and playful. Rococo rooms were designed as totalworks of art with elegant and ornate furniture, small sculptures, ornamental mirrors, and tapestry complementing architecture, reliefs, and wall paintings. It was largely supplanted by the Neoclassic style. In 1835 the Dictionary of the French Academystated that the word Rococo "usually covers the kind of ornament, style and design associated with Louis XV's reign and the beginning of that of Louis XVI". It includes therefore, all types of art produced around the middle of the 18th century inFrance. See also: Rococo more info on styles
