Description from the seller

Price box, signed in gold-plated bronze in Napoleon III style – diameter 8.5 cm

Description

Elegant box (possibly a snuffbox) dating from around the 1900s, made of gilded bronze with fine gold, signed on the bottom.

The snuffbox features a remarkable guilloché decoration and finely chiseled work, composed of concentric friezes and regular geometric motifs, demonstrating a high level of artisanal craftsmanship.
The gilding, warm and deep, has preserved a beautiful antique patina.


Dimensions: 8.5 cm in diameter – 3.3 cm in height.
Very good condition, with slight interior wear consistent with age. I emphasize the importance of carefully examining the photos, as they serve as a description. That said, it is in very good condition.
