Watch and Watch-stand.
Height in.
This costly specimen, from the hand of the jeweller Koehler of Dresden, in pure Rococo taste, has
but little pretension to artistic beauty of form, but makes a very pleasing impression, notwithstanding, from
the judicious application of enamelling, and the tasteful arrangement of the precious stones, with which
it is richly set. The foot is particularly worthy of attention. The watch itself was made by Droynot
of Poitiers.
