Hand-carved wooden Black Forest jewellery box, dating from 1850–1900.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is an oval, hand-carved solid walnut jewelry box, originating from the Black Forest region (Black Forest / Forêt Noire), dating from the late 19th century (circa 1880–1900).

The interior retains its original Capri blue velvet lining in excellent condition, bordered by a decorative textured cord. The wooden structure features decorative relief-carved details on the lid and stylized foliage on the sides, also integrating the original brass hinges, lock, and strike plate.

Very good overall condition. Minimal signs of wear to the wood patina due to age. Velvet interior well preserved.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my enormous passion; all the items I have up for auction were found at antique fairs and from antique dealers mainly in the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original and obviously beautiful. Quality guarantee and very careful shipping of the pieces. ATTENTION: If you are interested in one of my pieces that has a reserve price, please note that I will absolutely not offer it for less than 80% of the reserve value of the piece. And I should also note that if that piece is not sold here on Catawiki, I will sell it at another auction house, so if you’re really interested in any of my pieces, buy it when you see it the first time. Thank you very much
