Jewelry Casket in Gilt Bronze and Beveled Glass, 19th Century

About the Item

This charming antique French jewelry casket is a true little treasure in itself. Dating back to the late 19th century, this delicate box was designed with an eye for elegance and romance—exactly the kind of piece that once adorned a sophisticated boudoir. Its oval shape is accentuated by a finely crafted gilt bronze filigree, featuring an intricate scrolling floral motif with small rosettes, a testament to the level of detail and craftsmanship of the time. The body is set on four dainty ball feet, giving it an air of lightness and refinement. Inside, a luxurious deep red velvet lining offers a soft resting place for your most cherished keepsakes. The top is adorned with a thick beveled glass lid that catches the light beautifully, creating reflections that enhance the golden tones of the filigree. When opened, the interior of the lid reveals a second glass panel, framed in gilded metal, allowing for a subtle play of transparency and depth. The bottom features an original glass panel with a slightly aged patina, adding to its antique charm. Perfect for displaying rings, earrings, or small mementos, this petite casket is not just a storage piece—it’s a whisper from the past, a little slice of Belle Époque elegance that will bring character and soul to any vanity or dressing table.
