This elegant large rectangular jewelry box features a solid wood construction with luxurious, richly figured burl veneer (likely walnut or similar exotic wood) in warm, reddish-brown tones with beautiful natural grain patterns. The hinged lid is adorned with a high-relief “repoussé sterling silver-plated panel” displaying an intricate floral motif—blooming flowers, grapes, leaves, and swirling tendrils in ornate Victorian/Art Nouveau-inspired style—framed by a gilt border for added contrast and sophistication. Signed "Alliani" on the silver panel and hallmarked with "R 10 13g", "925” within an oval, nrs. and "MC"". This is an Italian maker specializing in decorative silver-plated (electroplated) items on wood bases, often featuring embossed/repoussé artistry. Production occurred in Italy, likely in regions known for metalwork and decorative arts (e.g., northern or central Italy), during the mid-to-late 20th century(circa 1960s–1980s), based on style, comparable pieces, and the brand's appearance in vintage markets. These Alliani Italian silver-plated wood boxes are collectible for their ornate craftsmanship and appeal in vintage European decorative arts, often sold alongside similar floral-embossed pieces from mid-century Italian makers. Dimensions: approximately 26 x 16.5 x 5 cm Weight: 611 grams—substantial and premium feel. The interior valvet lined, perfect for rings, necklaces, watches, or small treasures. Condition: Good vintage with bright silver plating, intact chasing, small repaired scratch on side. Ideal for collectors of Victorian silver plate, antique jewelry storage, or as a thoughtful gift—elegant boho, vintage, or heirloom decor! Shipment: Will be packed with special care.
