A nef is an extravagant table ornament and container used in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, made of precious metals in the shape of a ship – nef was another word for a carrack in French. If not just used for decoration, it could hold salt or spices (the latter being very expensive in the Middle Ages), or cutlery, or even napkins. The large nef depicted in the well-known calendar miniature for January from the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry is being used to hold, and perhaps wash, gilt dishes from the table service.

  • Se denomina nef («nave» en francés) a un tipo de vasija con forma de barco, elaborada generalmente en plata, bastante frecuente entre finales de la Edad Media y el Renacimiento.​ En principio, este tipo de piezas estaban destinadas a la aristocracia y se utilizaban por lo general como contenedores de piezas de cubertería (cuchillo, cuchara y servilleta). A partir del siglo XVI su uso más habitual era ya como adorno de mesa, especialmente en Suiza y Alemania. En numerosas ocasiones eran réplicas casi exactas de barcos famosos, elaboradas con todo lujo de detalles, a menudo con figuritas de marineros.​ (es)

  • Une nef de table est une pièce d'orfèvrerie en forme de navire qui trône sur la table d'honneur lors d'un banquet, faisant office de coffret. Elle est constituée d'un coffre figurant la coque du vaisseau et d'un couvercle formant le pont de ce bateau. Elle s'ouvre au moyen d’une clé et permet de ranger les couverts d'un prince ou d'un aristocrate (gobelet, tranchoir, serviette, cuillère et salière, cure-dents, coupelles contenant des épices précieuses et des « épreuves » servant de contrepoisons). La nef suit son propriétaire à chaque repas, même à l’extérieur. (fr)
  • O nef é um enfeite de mesa extravagante e recipiente de metais preciosos usados na Idade Média e Renascença, feita na forma de um navio - "nef" era um termo alternativo em francês para uma nau. Não foi utilizado apenas para decoração, podia guardar o sal ou especiarias, ambos muito valiosos na Idade Média, talheres ou mesmo guardanapos. Os nefs eram muito comumente oferecidos como presente de casamento em Nuremberga no início do século XVII. (pt)

  • A nef is an extravagant table ornament and container used in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, made of precious metals in the shape of a ship – nef was another word for a carrack in French. If not just used for decoration, it could hold salt or spices (the latter being very expensive in the Middle Ages), or cutlery, or even napkins. The large nef depicted in the well-known calendar miniature for January from the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry is being used to hold, and perhaps wash, gilt dishes from the table service. Nefs are recorded in France as early as 1239, initially consisting of just the hull, and perhaps initially used to drink from; by the 14th century the most elaborate had masts, sails and even crew, and had become too crowded with such details to be used as containers for anything. The so-called Mechanical Galleon in the British Museum is a late 16th-century German nef which was also a clock and automaton, with moving figures and music. A nef was usually made of silver, silver-gilt or gold, often further embellished with enamel and jewels. A nautilus shell often formed the hull of the ship, as in the Burghley Nef (illustrated). Some nefs had wheels to allow them to be rolled from one end of the table to the other, but most had legs or pedestals. The nef was placed in front of the most important person at table as a mark of their status. The equivalent in religious plate is a navicula, Latin for small ship, and also a term in English for a boat-shaped incense-holder. (en)

Os nefs eram muito comumente oferecidos como presente de casamento em Nuremberga no início do século XVII. Era geralmente feito de prata, ouro ou os dois, muitas vezes mais embelezado com esmalte e jóias. As conchas frequentemente formaram o casco do navio. Alguns nefs tinham rodas, mas a maioria tinha pernas ou pedestais. O nef era colocado na frente da pessoa mais importante na mesa como uma marca de seu status. (pt)
