Johannes Szakáll

Johannes Szakáll (1748-1772) was a Hungarian silversmith known for his ornate, intricately crafted pieces. The example displayed here is a silver ewer, its rounded body and elegant spout and handle are characteristic of the late 18th-century Rococo style. The central, circular motif featuring two lions and a tree is likely a heraldic symbol, further highlighting the craftsmanship of this Hungarian artist.
