AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid and rare vintage jewelry box, an iconic interior decor piece dating back to the 1950s, likely of Italian craftsmanship.

Made from genuine polished onyx marble, it features natural veins and fascinating shades that fade from emerald green to cream, with accents of brown and amber. Each onyx box is unique thanks to the color variations and striations of the natural stone.

The design is enhanced by elegant gold-colored metal finishes, including a sturdy zipper and four decorative lion paw-shaped feet that add a touch of opulence and stability.

The interior is lined with soft velvet or felt (usually green or red in these models), ideal for storing jewelry, trinkets, or small precious objects.
