Description from the seller

Rare Italian-origin jewelry box dating from the mid-20th century. In silvered metal, with the case made from real ostrich egg. Both the egg and the metal base are in very good condition; I detected no flaws, only a beautiful patina. Imposing, large in size—an piece that will make an impact in your living room.

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.
