Fitted with sewing and writing implements as well as a watch, this unmarked n\u00e9cessaire shows delightful chinoiserie decoration in the Rococo style, echoing the work of the influential Munich designer Fran\u00e7ois Cuvilli\u00e9s (1695\u20131768). via Metropolitan Museum New York City, U.S.A. metmuseum.org<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Small toiletry, writing, or sewing containers were called Necessaire or Etui: Tiny boxes or containers were carried in large castles or sprawling manor houses so a lady or gentleman had their essentials with them all day. They were also important when traveling by coach, trains, or ships where space was always limited. A necessaire or Etui was easily carried in a bag, reticule, or pocket so essentials were on hand for personal grooming, to repair a ripped hem, replace a button, to embroider, or to write a note or letter. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><a href=\"books2read.com\/SuziLoveWritingTools\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/suzilove.files.wordpress.com\/2021\/07\/1745-1750_necessairewithwatchprobablygerman_metmuseum_collage.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"1745-1750 ca.
