About the Item

Cylindrical box of "turner's test", 17th-18th century. Cylindrical box decorated with different bands and lid with a carved star. In the bse it presents a series of inscriptions that allude to the purpose with which it was created: this type of pieces were mastery tests of the apprentice turner, which they had to take to pass certain exams within the guild to which they belonged. Many of these works are not preserved because they are more practical than decorative and are not commissioned by a client, but their interest is undeniable for this very reason.
