Description from the seller

Art Deco cardboard confectionery box – Bird and flower design

Antique confectionery box made of cardboard covered in printed paper, dating from the Art Deco period. On the lid, two white wading birds stand by the water beneath branches laden with coral-pink flowers. The touches of gold and aqua green contrast beautifully with the dark background. The lid bears the inscription “Confiseur – Louhans.”

This box comes from a batch of old boxes that had remained unused. The design has retained its lovely colors, with slight signs of age along the edges.

Approximate dimensions · 19 cm long × 10.5 cm wide × 3.5 cm high.
