Antique French Ormolu Jewelry box circa 1900. This gorgeous beveled glass and brass jewelry casket has its original silk covered pillow. These were originally used as ring presentation boxes or as a way to store your treasured jewelry. It features a thick beveled glass with an ornate brass prong setting. The silk pillow shows significant wear and is original to the piece. The beveled glass is in good shape with some very minor pitting (hard to capture in the photographs). The catch should be adjusted so that it latches tight but we have left it in "as found" condition. This would make a lovely ring bearer box or a stunning presentation box for an engagement ring.

All of our pieces are well-loved and show signs of wear that comes along with aged items. Please feel free to ask questions as we are happy to provide any additional information you may need.
