Spice rack. Silver. DE CASTRO, Damián. SÁNCHEZ SOTO, Juan. Spain, Córdoba, second half of the 18th century. With contrast markings. Silver spice rack in its natural color with a truncated conical body, a sinuous lower rim resting on scroll-shaped feet with vegetal motifs, a semi-spherical, undivided bowl, a domed hinged lid, and decoration with high-relief vegetal elements. The lid features a rose surrounded by a line of dots creating waves. Hallmarks place the piece in Córdoba, as verified by Damián de Castro, and indicate it was made by Juan Sánchez Soto (likely the son, brother of Cristóbal), in the second half of the 18th century. Typologically, it belongs to a somewhat unique tradition or style, common in Córdoba and Madrid but also found in Girona, Antequera, and other locations. Weight: 87 grams.
