The body of this antique gold case is embellished with panels of engine turned decoration encompassed with gold scrolling leaf decorated borders.
The decoration to the body incorporates matte panels to the sides, further ornamented with elongated floral vase designs.
The upper and lower portion of the case are encompassed with exceptional applied simplified rosette and foliate decorated borders, accented with tri-coloured gold highlights.
This impressive antique 20ct gold box is fitted with a push fit cover ornamented with further tri-colour gold bordered engine turned decorated panels, reflecting the design to the body.
