Jewellery box - Brass, Glass - Napoleon III

Elegant antique jewelry box from the late 19th century, during the Napoleon III period.

The box is made of gilded brass, richly decorated with scrollwork and volutes in the rocaille style, typical of Louis XV taste, which was revived under Napoleon III.

The lid is adorned with a thick beveled glass, mounted in a notched gallery, a characteristic element of the high-quality productions of that era.

The interior is entirely upholstered with turquoise silk/velvet, with central stitching, maintaining a beautiful antique appearance.

The chest rests on four ball feet and has its original lock.

Beautiful decorative and collectible object.

Good overall condition considering the age, signs of use, and slight patina of the metal consistent with an antique piece. The interior padding shows normal wear related to time. The glass is present and in good condition. See the photos, which are part of the description.
