Description from the seller
Display Case in Louis XV Style
Elegant French 19th-century exhibition case, crafted in a refined Louis XV style, characterized by a sinuous bombé form and richly gilded bronze mounts finely chiseled.
The structure features sculpted glass panels on all sides and on the opening lid, allowing full viewing of the interior contents. The profile is adorned with bronze mounts with Rocaille motifs, foliate scrolls, and naturalistic decorations typical of the French taste of the period. On the front there is an elegant appliqué with a central mascaron, while the corners are enriched with ornamental elements carved with great care.
The lid, hinged at the back, is complete with its original closure. The interior is lined with tufted gold-toned upholstery fabric, ideal for displaying jewelry or small precious objects. The contoured, shaped feet complete the ensemble, giving it dynamism and harmony.
A piece of great charm and decorative value, perfect as a display case or furniture element for classical and refined interiors.
