AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Decorative porcelain box with a gilded bronze mount, heraldic design – France, 20th century

Superb French decorative box in Paris porcelain, richly adorned with a polychrome heraldic shield and mounted in an elegant mount of finely chased gilt bronze.
A refined piece, in impeccable condition, ideal for collection or prestige display.

This magnificent decorative box is made of fine French porcelain, produced by the Porcelain Workshops of Paris, recognizable by their craftsmanship and the quality of their decoration.
The piece features an elegant form with sinuous, scroll-cut contours, enhanced by a polychrome floral decoration accentuated with gilding, centered by a heraldic shield depicting three boar heads, accompanied by the Latin motto "PER ARDUA BONI" (which can be translated as "Through hardships, toward honor and goodness").
The set is accented by a very fine gilt-bronze mount of excellent quality, comprising:
a finely chiselled gallery,
a decorative front closure,
a precise fit between porcelain and mount, a testament to meticulous craftsmanship.
The box is in impeccable condition, with no cracks, chips, or restorations. The gilding is well preserved, and the porcelain presents a uniform, glossy glaze.
