This exquisite French glove box showcases exceptional craftsmanship, with a beautifully figured wood veneer arranged in a chevron pattern and wrapped in ornate gilded bronze ormolu trim. The elegant serpentine shape and fine detailing along the top and base are hallmarks of the Belle Époque era, when boxes such as these graced the vanities and dressing tables of fashionable women.
The front features a discreet keyhole escutcheon and hidden compartments—likely designed to hold gloves or cherished trinkets. The piece remains in lovely antique condition with age-appropriate wear, and the warm patina of the wood only adds to its charm.
Perfect as a statement vanity piece, jewelry box, or collector’s item. 12” length. Note that the sides of the box don’t sit flush on the top.
