Beschreibung
16.5 x 9 cm.The typology of this pyx is a cylindrical box and conical lid with ornamentation of superimposed half-moons. The upper section with a cross seems to us to be later. It presents a band of gothic characters at the middle. At the base there are three punched marks that we cannot decipher. It seems to us that these marks could correspond to those of the silversmith Diego Fernández de Abanza, which we found in a host dated in Burgos 1479/1488, in the catalogue of the exhibition "Silverware in the time of the Catholic Monarchs", by José Manuel Cruz Valdovinos (example 102, p.187).In our opinion, this pyx is comparable to a Gothic pyx from Burgos kept in the Museum of Malaga and also the one kept in the Church of San Pedro and Ermita del Salvador de Beinza-Labayen, in Navarra, information that we extract from the blog article "Hostiario gótico del platero Pedro de Porres en el Museo de Málaga" (Gothic host of the silversmith Pedro de Porres in the Museum of Malaga), by Dr. José Ángel Palomares Samper, curator of the Museum of Malaga. In it, he provides the indications of Professor Aurelio Barros García, according to whom "this type of pyx modified its initial squat appearance around the year 1450, by increasing the camber of its cover, adopting a singular shape as a reference to the volumetry of tents or medieval military pavilions, used by Muslims and emulated by the Castilian nobility".Reference bibliography:- Cruz Valdovinos, José María.
