AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Round wooden box 22 cm in diameter and weighing 1.710 kg. Made from a single block of wood, probably linden, it is decorated with tropical scenes on a shiny black background: a profile view of a naked woman reclining under a palm surrounded by plants with berries, and in the background a tree and a bird. The box is in excellent condition, with some signs of aging, in its original patina. Made in France in the early 1900s, in the Art Deco style, and signed, as you can see from the photos, MAG. MIT.
A splendid testament to the past, but at the same time a precious antique object of great decorative value.
A decidedly special and collectible item for its peculiarities and for its excellent state of conservation.
The photos are to be considered an integral part of the description; shipping will be fast and insured for the full value. We do not ship outside Europe. At the end of the auction please check the message center where you will receive photos of the packaging and instructions for receipt.
