Description from the seller
An elegant and visually striking set of handcrafted solid wood boxes designed in the shape of antique books, accompanied by a refined matching chest. This ensemble combines practicality with strong decorative appeal, capturing the timeless charm of vintage-inspired objects.
The book-shaped boxes are finely crafted, featuring a sturdy structure and beautifully visible natural wood grain, enhanced by a warm tone and a deliberately aged finish. The antique-style hinges and metal details add character and authenticity, evoking the aesthetic of historical volumes. The chest, enriched with shaped drawer fronts and decorative handles, completes the set while providing additional storage space.

Intended Use
Perfect as decorative pieces and functional storage. The book-shaped boxes are ideal for storing small items, documents, jewelry, or personal keepsakes, blending discreetly into bookcases or desks. The chest provides additional storage for organizing everyday objects or collections. Also suitable as a distinctive gift idea or statement décor element.
