Description from the seller

A stylish, vintage jewelry box made of solid wood with beautiful, natural grain, ideal for lovers of unique objects with soul. The lid of the box is adorned with an impressive brass bas-relief depicting a classic and exceptionally elegant motif of three horses by the lathe, enclosed in a decorative oval. Such vanity boxes dominated desks in the last century as elegant containers for cigarettes or cigars, and today they make an excellent decorative element in a study and a practical place for jewelry, coins, or other precious trinkets. The item has remained in its original visual condition with natural patina on the metal fittings and delicate signs of time on the wood, which only adds to its authentic antique charm. It is a unique collectible item and a great idea for an unconventional gift for any horse enthusiast and fans of retro atmospheres.
