A Very Unusual and Large French Pink/Peach Opaline Floral Enamel Decorated Ormolu Mounted Box. This large rectangular box is formed in an elongated octagonal shape with chamfered corners and a hinged lid. The body is crafted from pink to peach-toned opaline glass, its surface decorated with an overall diapered pattern of raised panels. Each recessed diamond panel is adorned with hand-painted enamel floral sprays, consisting of white petals tipped with blue and accented with green foliage. The decoration is consistently arranged across all surfaces, including the lid and sides, giving the box a uniform appearance. The lid opens on a hinge to reveal a polished opaline interior of the same peach tone, framed with a band of gilded ormolu. A wide ormolu mount encircles the midsection, serving as both hinge and clasp support. This mount is chased with a repetitive foliate design, forming a textured surface that contrasts with the smooth opaline glass. The mount’s gilding provides structural reinforcement and adds a decorative metallic border between the upper and lower sections of the box. The hinge runs the full width at the back, while the front is fitted with a small clasp mechanism, discreetly incorporated into the ormolu banding. Measuring substantially larger than typical decorative opaline caskets...

The lid is masterfully composed with dynamic figural decoration, while the casket stands proudly on sculptural zoomorphic feet, enhancing its dramatic presence and luxurious character. The deep relief work, combined with a warm, aged gilt patina, creates exceptional depth and visual richness.

Antique French Baccarat Opaline Perfume Casket Box with Four Bottles This opaline perfume casket is formed as an oval box with softly rounded corners and a domed hinged lid. The body is constructed from opaque white opaline glass panels fitted within a continuous gilt bronze framework. The lid opens on rear hinges to reveal a fitted interior designed to hold four square perfume bottles, each topped with a gilt bronze stopper. The interior is organized with a shaped gilt bronze cradle and separators that secure each bottle individually. The exterior mount includes a front escutcheon with a keyhole aperture, flanked by applied scrolling feet at each corner, raising the casket slightly above the surface. A delicate gilt bronze swing handle is mounted at the sides, allowing the casket to be lifted as a single unit. The underside is enclosed with a matching opaline glass panel framed in bronze. The casket is identified as a French Baccarat opaline perfume casket. Baccarat is documented as a manufacturer of opaline glass objects and luxury toiletry items during this period, supplying fitted boxes and perfume sets for domestic and dressing table use. The attribution is based on material, construction, and documented Baccarat production of comparable opaline caskets...

Heavy Antique French Baccarat Milky White Opaline Crystal Ormolu Mounted Box This opaline crystal box is formed in a rectangular shape with rounded edges and smooth contours, presenting a milky white surface consistent across all sides. The lid and base align cleanly, creating a unified profile when closed. The opaline body has an even opaque tone, and the interior mirrors the same finish, maintaining continuity between the inner and outer surfaces. Its proportions are balanced, and the glass shows no variation in texture, demonstrating a high level of material quality. The mounts are composed of gilt bronze forming a complete band around the upper and lower sections. This band is decorated with a repeated upright leaf motif, each leaf individually struck into the bronze to create a regular pattern. A circular flower clasp is positioned at the center front, displaying radiating petals and a central raised node. The hinge is fitted neatly within the mount at the back, allowing the lid to lift cleanly without interrupting the outline of the box. The gilding retains an even color, showing well-preserved ormolu throughout. The mounts sit firmly against the glass, indicating a precise and well-executed construction. The box is produced in high-quality opaline crystal associated with Baccarat’s work, known for its weight, density, and consistent coloration. It survives in mint condition, with no chips, cracks, or abrasions to the glass. The ormolu mounts remain structurally sound, and the decorative details of the leaf-pattern band and rosette clasp are clearly defined. The overall presentation reflects the high standards of French opaline caskets...

Beautiful and rare Gothic Revival treasure box with bronze handle. If you are a collector of antique boxes and/or if you are looking for an extraordinary jewelry box to grace your credenza or side table then this unique and top quality made specimen in the Gothic style could be perfect. Gothic Revival boxes are very hard to find and we have never seen one with such prodigious carvings on all sides. The unique and cat-like dragon gargoyles (with fangs) that look like they are carrying this casket, are just some of the stunningly carved and detailed sculptures that make this antique rarity even more artistic and impressive. Another great feature are the peacock sculptures. In Christianity the peacock is the symbol of purity. Christians believe that once someone has passed their soul rises and goes to heaven. This is why in earlier times Christians would spread the feathers of a peacock over the deceased since it symbolized a pure soul that was immune to corruption. The peacock also represents immortality, resurrection, and the spiritual teachings of Jesus Christ and the Christian church. Have you also noticed the top quality details on both ends of the bronze handle on top? The quality of that ornamental work is of the absolute highest standard also. There are many more incredibly beautiful, hand carved details and together they show that no expense was spared to create one of the most amazing Gothic caskets...
