A charming antique French portrait box featuring a beautifully hand-painted miniature portrait set into the lid. The gilt bronze box has an elegant round form with delicate decorative detailing and a lovely timeworn warmth. The portrait itself is in wonderful condition, with soft coloring and fine detail that gives the piece such a romantic, old-world feel.
There is a tiny bit of patina to the bronze on the top, consistent with age, but overall it presents beautifully. A special little piece for a vanity, desk, or collection of French decorative objects.
Dimensions: 2.75” diameter x 1.25” high Origin: France Condition: Portrait in great shape; minor patina to bronze on top.
