Description from the seller
**Mid-20th Century Onyx Jewelry Box – Multicolour Veining with Brass Frame**
This elegant mid-20th century jewelry box is crafted from natural onyx, featuring a beautiful array of earthy tones including green, amber, and deep burgundy, accentuated by organic veining patterns unique to each slab. Its luxurious appearance is enhanced by a polished brass frame that outlines the lid and structure.
The box is both decorative and functional, ideal for storing jewelry or small valuables. The interior and lid are fully lined with onyx, showcasing the stone’s depth and translucency. It closes firmly and rests on a soft red felt base for surface protection.
**Dimensions (closed):**
* Height: 5.2 cm | 2.05 in
* Width: 10.5 cm | 4.13 in
* Depth: 8.5 cm | 3.35 in
The craftsmanship reflects quality work from the mid-1900s, likely European in origin. While the piece remains structurally solid, it shows signs of wear consistent with age, including minor surface marks, edge wear on the brass, and one visible chip inside the box (see photo).
This is a charming collector's item or a tasteful decorative object for interiors with a vintage or natural stone theme. Its rich coloration and tactile presence make it a standout display piece with practical function.
Sold as-is with signs of age and use.
I ensure prompt and careful shipping via Mondial Relay, offering the convenience of pick-up from your nearest location or home delivery via postal service. Following the sale, you will receive a message to coordinate shipment details. Don't miss the opportunity to adorn your home with these elegant pieces!
