Beautiful Jean-Michel Frank straw marquetry decorative box from the 1930s. Carved from beech wood fully covered by straw marquetry with radiating patterns. It has been fully restored, with slight traces on the marquetry remaining, and the yellow velvet fabric inside that was pretty damaged has been replaced by a black velvet fabric. The box is unsigned, but really similar in size and pattern to Jean-Michel Frank boxes, including the one sold by Sotheby’s on November 21st 2017. A collectible piece, perfect as a gift, with a very nice decorative presence.
Litterature : Léopold Diego Sanchez, "Jean-Michel Frank", Editions du regard, Paris, 1980, a similar marquetry box p.80.
