Small Antique Jewellery Chest - Small and Pretty - Romantic Gold Trinket Pot - Antique buying Régule Decor - French Trinket Box - Jewellery Box

* CAREFUL PACKAGING & SPEEDY SHIPPING *

A beautiful little Napoleon III gold jewellery chest from the Napoleon III period. The design motif on the lid is an elegant wreath and the body of the chest carries similar elaborate decor, classic from this romantic period. The chest is made from régule, which has the natural aspect very similar to pewter and often painted gold, as with this piece. This alloy used in the late 1800s and into the early 1900s, originally for statues and later for smaller decorative items.

The base is number stamped.

A lovely addition to an elegant stylish interior or for the discerning collector.

CONDITION
Good antique. There is a scratch patch on the lid and overall signs of age and wear commensurate with use. The classic satin/sil pinned cushions which would have adorned the interior of the lid and the base of the box are now missing and this imperfection is reflected in the price.
