  • During the early modern period, the economy, as well as trade and transportation, were advanced enough that foreign trade became commonplace. This was a new development, and it allowed large numbers of people in the West to have access to goods from "exotic" places. These were often bought by the upper classes as a sign of wealth, status and sophistication.
  • These claims were usually directed towards the other members of society, in particular the other members of the upper classes. People who acquired these goods for status were often competing with others in order to achieve more status and importance in their social groups.
  • Objects in private settings were usually connected to the wealth and importance of their owners. Also, these were often shown only to acquaintances and other members of the same social class. On the other hand, goods that were acquired for public display were usually connected to the wealth of the country at large (especially in comparison to other countries).

• The possession of foreign objects conveyed status because of the wealth needed to acquire them, their rarity, and the perceptions of those who saw them. • These claims of status were directed toward other members of the same society.
