Small Gilded Box Engraved and Painted Wood Venice Italy XVI C. Belloni family

About the Item

Small box with opening top, slightly convex urn front with shaped shelf support, decorated on the front with carved tablet, while the rest of the object is simply painted. The front started with four pilasters that create three reserves, the two lateral pilasters have two twisted columns on a blue background, the central pilasters are instead painted with gold candelabra and traces of color on a blue background. In the two lateral reserves, carved in bas-relief in the tablet, two poles around which oak branches are twisted; in the central reserve a quatrefoil motif with flowers and crosses on the sides encloses a laurel wreath with a bow to which a heraldic coat of arms hangs. The coat of arms, a gold band accompanied by 2 circles of the same placed on the bar all over blue, corresponds to the coat of arms of the Belloni family of Venice. In the frame under the top a pattern of successive leaves is painted, on the sides as well as on the foot a simple border with a large blue field; unfortunately the painting of the top is completely lost.
