Rare Art Deco Janetti Silver Vanity Case in solid 800 silver – 375g – Guilloché Work
Detailed Description
For sale a prestigious handbag vanity case (trousse) in solid silver, authentic testimony of Italian elegance from the mid-20th century. The piece is signed by the famous silverware maker Janetti, a historic manufacturer known for supplying to the great families of the era.
The exterior and the interior compartments are adorned with a refined fine-rigged guilloché pattern and geometric motifs, which create beautiful plays of light and conceal any usage scratches. The structure is extremely solid, with a substantial weight indicating high manufacturing quality.

Comb: Original from the period, housed in its central compartment, made of premium synthetic material (faux tortoiseshell).
