About the Item

A beautiful vintage Indian white marble box, circa 1940s, intricately inlaid with lapis, agate, and other semi-precious stones forming delicate floral vines and flowers across the surface. The craftsmanship reflects the long tradition of Indian pietra dura work, celebrated for its precision and vibrant use of natural stones. The marble remains in very good vintage condition, with no noted cracks or repairs, and the inlay retains its rich color and fine detail.
