The bulk of my inventory comes from estate sales. This romantically beautiful piece is from an exclusive gated community in Pinehurst, NC. Rarely do I encounter a treasure such as this gorgeous box.

The only apt descriptive word for this piece is "exquisite."

Heavy gold gilt on a cobalt blue porcelain background.

Footed and lidded.

Literally hundreds of floral blossoms that have been painstakingly and individually applied. Chrysanthemums, daisies, roses, lilies, forget-me-nots and more. Florals and leaves enhanced with more gold gilt.

7-1/2” long, 6-1/2” high, 4-3/4” wide

I have been unable to determine the name of the maker. The underside mark is a shield with M___RE over a cross over TRE. Marked Espana.

Condition: Excellent. No chips or cracks. No broken flowers. less
