This is a VINTAGE, Hand Crafted “Light Green Olive Brown Italian Onyx Marble Red Velvet Lined Brass Claw Feet Lidded Jewelry Chest Stash Box" from the early-1950s. Purchased by my friend's parents during a trip to Italy in 1952, it was bequeathed to my friend. Getting ready to move to a retirement home, she has no children and has asked me to sell this family heirloom for her. It has a minor buckle and shifting of the hinge, with NO rips, tears, marks, stains, odors, cracks, chips or other damage; it comes from a smoke-free, pet-free home. With a STYLISH Roman, Classical design, it stands approximately 2 3/4th inches tall, it measures approximately 6 3/4th inches long and approximately 4 3/4th inches deep; it is NOT Marked or Signed.
Fine decor for your refined interior, this Vintage Marble Box is an Original work of Italian Art. The earthy colors exude a majestic look, making it the IDEAL place to keep your favorite jewelry and other treasures; everything will stand out against the Red Velvet lining. This Greenish Olive Brown Marble Storage Box has HANDSOME veins of Rusty Red, Cream and Tan running through it, and is the PERFECT fit for your necklaces, bracelets or other stashables. A BEAUTIFUL example of the Italian Folk Art of carving Marble, it is an exquisitely finished, high quality piece and is quite collectible! Rich and vibrant, this GORGEOUS Box is WONDERFULLY carved from solid Marble and features a polished exterior that is just as shiny as when it left the artisan's studio. Both useful and decorative, it beautifully shows the natural translucent combination of the Olive Green mineral stone with fluid Rusty Red, Cream and Tan natural veining and the golden Brass Claw Feet that make this jewelry box a gem in its own right. Richly polished and expertly handcrafted, the lid has a tight, precision fit even though the hinge is slightly buckled.
