AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid and most elegant candy box (or bonbonnière) in crystal made in France around the middle of the last century. The object is characterized by a refined decoration in pure silver applied with the silver overlay technique. The decoration is created by applying a thin layer of silver directly onto the surface of the crystal through an electrolytic process. The design, with the lattice motif and stylized floral decorations, is typical of the Art Deco style or the mid-20th century period. A unique and sought-after piece, with sinuous and elegant shapes, which, with the gleam of the crystal and the applied silver, constitutes an element of extraordinary regal presence."} } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } }
