For your consideration is this Antique wooden chest/ jewelry box. The piece is very unusual and had been hand made with an array of brass inlay accents and decorative design details. These embellishments are seemingly protective as well allowed the artisan involved the opportunity to display their talents working in different materials at the same time creating something useful. If I had to choose only one word to describe it, I would have to say "handsome" as it displays exceedingly well with an old world charm all its own. The box should provide years of service and elicit conversation for many years to come.The box measures approximately 10 x 6 3/4 x 3 1/2 inches high and has a multi compartmentalized velvet interior with removable lids for each compartment that is contained within. (Please review attached photographs) The uses for this piece are broad and the decorative appeal even wider. So weather for display, stowage or perhaps as a one of a kind unusual gift item, rest assured this box shall not disappoint. Condition is good for age and type with a few replacements nails notes. One of the interior boxes scalloped metal accent piece has vanished with the passage of time as well as one interior box lid is missing a brass border(see photos) All tolled a truly wonderful treasure!
