In this exceptional exhibition catalogue on the mores of dining, the Pforzheim Jewelry Museum presents historical goldsmithing and contemporary design, jewellery to eat, and treasures from across the globe. Text in German.

The aristocratic families of Europe once used to indulge in luxurious banquets with exquisite table accessories to demonstrate their power and extravagantly while away the hours. Well into the 18th century, it was not unusual for people to bring their own cutlery--quite often peculiar, valuable one-of-a-kind pieces. In the Baroque period, matching dinner services came into vogue and, in the wake of industrialization, became mass-produced commodities. Trading with faraway countries, conquests, and migration augmented people's menus with exotic fruit and spices and contributed to a change in customs and traditions.
