AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Ethnic Toilet Set/Jewelry Box with Flip-Top Mirror
This unique piece is a fascinating wooden toiletry or jewelry box, characterized by a rustic design and a dark patina that attest to its age and use.
The central piece consists of a mirror mounted on a tilting (or foldable) panel that, once opened, reveals a spacious storage compartment underneath, ideal for storing cosmetics, jewelry, or small treasures. The lower structure of the box features two small upper drawers and a larger lower drawer, all equipped with metal ring handles, which enhance its organizational capacity.
The aesthetic is notably rustic/ethnic, with simple lines and handcrafted construction that suggest a non-industrial origin, perhaps Asian or linked to a specific local tradition. Its imperfections and signs of time add considerable character and warmth to the object.
Excellent condition as per photo
Open dimensions: height 36 cm; closed: 16 cm; width 20 cm; depth 30 cm; weight 3.2 kg.
Seller's Story
Welcome to a fascinating journey into the beating heart of the 20th century, where the objects that animated that era are transformed into custodians of timeless stories, passions and emotions in a journey that combines the elegance of antiques with the unmistakable charm of vintage.
From a land rich in traditions like Italy, and in particular from the vibrant South, I dedicate myself with passion to the search for unique finds, authentic witnesses of a century full of history and innovation.
Every object, whether it is an antique piece of furniture or a rare vintage item, carries with it stories and emotions, evoking memories of a time that continues to inspire.
