Description from the seller
Antique Jewellery Box – Napoleon III – Bronze – Early 19th Century – Marked “DEPOSE 440”
A beautifully detailed Napoleon III jewellery box from the early 19th century, crafted in bronze with refined decorative motifs. This miniature chest is richly ornamented on all sides, featuring floral decorations, column-shaped corners, and an elegant lid with crossed torches surrounded by beaded edging.
The box stands on four sculpted feet and is marked on the underside with DEPOSE and 440, indicating registered design and quality craftsmanship. The original patina has been preserved, showing age-consistent wear that enhances its authentic antique character.
The interior opens smoothly and shows the original bronze surface. A charming and decorative object for collectors of Napoleon III, French bronze works, or antique trinket boxes.

Shipping

Note to US residents, due to extra processing costs of 150 euro plus the increase of tax tariffs on top of the shipping costs, Beau Brocante unfortunately had to raise the shipping costs to cover this. Since this is an auction platform, it is impossible to predict the outcome of the auction and we have to ensure covering costs.
