AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The object is probably an antique jewelry box or a bridal case made of bronze or brass. Wooden core, covered with thin sheet metal.
The case is made of wood covered with metal, probably brass or bronze.
It features elaborate engraved decorations in the form of flourishes and patterns.
The object has a carrying handle and closures.
It can be seen that over the years, the original parts have been replaced with parts from the period, such as the hinges and locks.
I purchased it in Spain; the people I bought it from received it as a gift (even back then, considered an antique) brought from North Africa or the Orient (they could no longer provide further details).
Body probably wood.

Height with handle: about 42 cm.
Height without handle: approximately 32 cm.
Depth: approximately 9 cm
Width approximately 46.5 cm.
