AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Jewellery Box – 1950’s – Italy – Onyx and Gilt Bronze
Elegant mid-century Italian jewellery box crafted in beautifully polished honey-coloured onyx, mounted with refined gilt bronze details. Dating from the 1950’s, this piece reflects the timeless Italian taste for luxurious natural materials combined with clean, balanced design.
The body is formed from solid onyx with soft translucency and subtle natural veining. The warm tone of the stone contrasts beautifully with the gilt bronze framing and the finely detailed paw feet, giving the box a classical yet distinctly mid-century character.
The hinged lid opens smoothly and reveals a clean interior, ideal for storing jewellery, cufflinks or small precious objects. The underside is finished neatly, and the bronze has developed a light, attractive patina consistent with age.
Condition is good overall with minor signs of wear in line with use and period. The onyx is in beautiful condition and displays natural variations typical for this material. Please review the photos carefully as they form part of the description.
A refined Italian decorative object, perfect for a dressing table, desk or curated interior.
Shipping: shipped within 1–3 business days after payment. Securely packaged with track and trace and insurance.
