[The Grosvenor House Antiques Fair/Wartski Limited, 14 Grafton Street, London] A Profane Reliquary. An oval gold boîte à portrait with a pendant pearl and suspension loop, set with rectangular faceted and rose-cut diamonds, enamelled opaque white overall and decorated with painted enamel lilies and fritillaries and scrolling foliage, the hinged cover applied with a diamond-set sword surmounted by an electoral crown enamelled translucent scarlet. The interior of the pendant (centre) is painted with the miniature likeness of Friedrich Wilhelm, Elector of Brandenburg (1640-1688) in armour and wearing a lace collar and an embroidered sash; the interior of the cover is enamelled with a ducal coronet and the initials F W C for Friedrich Wilhelm Churfürst. The portrait is based upon an engraving by Jeremy Farlett which is dated 1647. Friedrich Wilhelm is traditionally credited with having laid the foundation for the subsequent strength of Prussia. This boîte à portrait exactly follows the tradition of such Royal pendant jewels notably exemplified by those in the Kunsthistorishes Museum in Vienna of circa 1572 attributed to Dujardin with miniature portraits by François Clouet of Catherine de Medici and Charles IX of France and that in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London of circa 1600 by Daniel Mignot containing the painting of Queen Elizabeth by Nicholas Hilliard. The boîte à portrait in general, has been aptly specified by Torben H. Colding as a profane reliquary. North German, circa 1647. Overall height 6 cm ($2frac{3}{8}$ in).
