It is almost beyond belief that a quotidian artifact of that era was so beautifully embellished and finished and has remained in such pristine condition for over 250 years. Truly a work of art and, given its provenance, one of the few of its kind justifying the catalog description of "important." Makes me want to smoke a fine imported cigar, just looking at it.
