About the Item
Silver writing set. With hallmarks. Córdoba, Antonio José de Santa Cruz (Córdoba, 1733 -?) and Juan de Luque and Leiva, Spain, 1773.
It shows some fault in some container and adds bell.
Silver writing set composed by tray, four containers and bell. The first element, oval shaped, has edges with smooth curves and countercurves, decorated in the upper part with flat moldings, combined with volutes and venerated forms; stands on legs composed of two scrolls flanking a tear, set topped by a symmetrical composition. The four containers, with lid, have profiles with smooth curves (among which engraved initials can be seen), which are directed towards the top following parallel spirals between them, these lines that extend in the caps, finished. Two of them, smaller, have holes in the lids. The bell to call the service, which has a space for itself in the tray, presents a much simpler lines.
The contrast marks arranged in several points of the game provide data regarding their date, origin and place of creation. They would have been made in Cordoba, in Spain. Antonio Jose de Santa Cruz was a silversmith known for his work in Cordoba, active in the second half of
the eighteenth century mainly; his pieces are conserved in some churches and in outstanding
institutions like the National Museum of Decorative Arts of Madrid. Juan de Luque y Leiva was a wellknown Cordoban marker, active at the same time, with work conserved in the area (Parish of San Miguel de Córdoba, a vinajera with vinajeras in Loja of 1778, works in the Museum of the Costume of Madrid, etc.).
Stylistically, the lines of the whole (except those of the bell), show the Rococo's influence, with the usual influence of certain details of Neoclassicism, which affect the relative simplification of decoration of the pieces, while still maintaining some of the movement of the other artistic style mentioned, which is also characteristic of the eighteenth century.
