The ensemble of objects on offer has an interesting provenance and exhibition history. Its origin can be traced back to the late 19th century, based on the excellent documentation in the research and exhibition literature. It comes from the possession of an old Nuremberg patrician family, the Harsdorf von Enderndorf family, whose best-known representative Georg Philipp Harsdörffer (1607-1658) was an influential scholar in the first half of the 17th century. The aristocratic origin of the ensemble is also tangible in the object itself: The escutcheon held by the lion in its paws on the lid of the ewer shows the engraved coat of arms of the von Harsdorf under a baronial crown. Even though the Harsdorf von Enderndorf family was not elevated to the rank of Bavarian barons until 1841, it remains conceivable that the ewer with basin was already in the possession of the family from the 17th century onwards and the escutcheon underwent corresponding adjustments on the occasion of this distinction.
