AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful jewelry box from the Louis XVI period circa 1780-85, made of oak wood veneered with mahogany.
The inlaid trim is made of holly and mahogany.
The fittings are original except for the hinges, which have been replaced later on.
The tea caddy has a beautiful patina, and given its age, it also shows signs of use.
The buses are missing, as is the key.
