Description from the seller

No reserve price!

Dressing Box / Portable Jewelry Box with Folding Mirror – Early 20th Century.

Dressing box or tabletop jewelry box, rectangular in shape, crafted in solid wood with a warm tone and visible grain. The upper lid is hinged, opening to reveal and raise a central rectangular mirror framed with a folding-support system. The lower section of the structure is composed of small functional drawers laid over each other, decorated with circular metal pulls of a classic style. A compact piece historically associated with travel cases, shaving, or the organization of jewelry and small personal adornments.

First Half of the 20th Century. Rustic/classic style (often associated with colonial productions or European and Asian travel boxes).

Good overall condition, denoting natural patina resulting from age and normal signs of handling that attest to its age (small marks on the wood and slight wear on the hardware). Mirror with a clear reflection.

The measurements are for the closed box.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
