Box - Gold leaf, ebonized black

Splendid, rare, and ancient carved wooden box, clad in gold leaf and finely hand-painted. It features rich floral decorations on a base of black ebony and burgundy. In the center, a magnificent heraldic crest with a rampant dragon. Refined artisanal craftsmanship from the past, of great quality and Italian elegance. Some light, normal signs of age visible in the photos. Very fascinating and in good condition.
