AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Hello, I offer you a richly ornate tabatière in solid silver and vermeil 800, engraved, rectangular in shape. The central medallion depicts a scene drawn from Greco-Roman mythology, featuring a chariot drawn by two horses, surrounded by floral motifs of incredible finesse, as you can see in the photos. A finishing frieze all around, excellent quality, on the sides a decoration of garlands representing leaves.

This box is remarkable, and its condition is excellent, with a maker's mark LC in a lozenge. These hallmarks are typical of French production from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.

My items are carefully packaged to ensure safe and reliable shipping with tracking and insurance."}oops? Wait included
