Vienna became a focal point / regional hub of production of finest enameled items made of silver and copper in beginning of the so-said 'Ringstrassen' - period (as from 1850) when Vienna's grand boulevard / avenue - the 'Ringstrasse' - was planned and built instead of ancient town wall having once been erected in the Middle Ages. - The range of production of enamel items was great - it included centrepieces and goblets, table & mantel (fireplace) clocks, folding screens with enameled decorations en miniature, snuffboxes and many other luxury articles - very often decorated with silver frames, crystal elements and gemstones.
