AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare Art Deco cigarette case / jewelry box in burl wood and 800 silver – 1930s (19.5 x 12 x 3.8 cm)
Elegant and refined vintage box in Art Déco style, dating to the 1930s, ideal as a table cigarette holder, jewelry box, or refined collectible piece.
Made in high-quality polished burl wood with warm natural grain.
The lid features two beveled side bands in 800 silver, finely worked with a geometric guilloché motif, typical of the rationalist taste of the era.
Equipped with a front convex handle in silver and a full-length internal hinge that works perfectly. The interior is fully lined with solid wood with a raised edge for a precise close.
• Dimensions: 19.5 x 12 x 3.8 cm.
• Condition: Excellent overall condition for the period. Shows the normal and fascinating patina of time, with slight signs of use consistent with age that attest to its authenticity (as visible in the photographs).
Note a small loss of burl on the top panel, see photos.
A piece of furniture with great vintage charm, perfect to embellish a desk, a living room, or a collection of vintage curios."
