Antique French Ormolu Jewelry Casket Box Bevelled Glass
Fabulous antique french ormolu casket jewelry box with heavy bevelled glass and a red tufted cushion on cabriole legs. I have never seen a jewelry casket with such thick, heavy glass and the bevelled glass is almost 1/4" thick. The lid has a beautiful scene of a palace. The bottom of the box has Gautrau written so I think this must be a scene from Gautrau, France. The red cushion has 4 tufted buttons and is very well intact with no holes or rips. There is no damage except to the back left corner, where there are some chips in the glass, but they have worn smooth over time. The box measures 2.75" high, 3.25" wide, and 2.5" deep. Just a wonderful antique item.
