AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pair of alabaster jewelry boxes with gold details
A refined pair of boxes made in natural alabaster, characterized by warm amber veining that makes each piece unique. The first box features a bark-like exterior finish that is more tactile and rough, while the second is completely polished to enhance the stone’s translucence. Both are finished with profiles and hinges in gilt brass, ensuring a solid and elegant closure. These objects embody the luxurious style of the 1960s/1970s, often associated with Hollywood Regency design.
Material: natural alabaster and brass.
Craft: Handmade, with a contrast between smooth surfaces and relief work.
Usage tip: Ideal as a jewelry box for the bedroom or as elegant containers for small objects in a formal living room.
