- Lot Description
A charming rectangular jewelry casket with beveled glass panels set into a gilt metal frame. The rectangular form is raised on four ornate scrolling feet, with a molded gilt metal frame adorned at the corners with drop-shaped floral mounts. The hinged lid features a central floral escutcheon with a keyhole (key not present), and all six panels are faceted beveled glass, creating an elegant reflective effect. The base is lined with original floral-patterned fabric, showcasing a delicate motif of roses and greenery against a striped background. Such caskets were popular in the Belle Époque period for storing jewelry, small treasures, or keepsakes. The combination of gilded metal, glass, and floral fabric exemplifies the refined decorative taste of late 19th-century French boudoir objects.14 7/8 x 10 x 6 1/4 in., (37.8 x 25.4 x 15.9 cm.)The casket appears structurally complete, with the glass panels, metal frame, and interior lining all intact.
