About the Item

This stunning, large, orientalist decorative lidded box is from the French Art Deco period. The Africanist influence design boasts Macassar wood hand-carved faces on the lid. The rectangular shape is complemented with off-white Galalith rounded feet and an impressive carved wooden handle-finial. There is no visible maker's mark. The box is in good condition, with one corner having a slightly open edge, but it does not pose a structural problem with the box. The Galalith plaque on the front side shows a crack. Measurements: 10.25 in wide (26 cm) by 5.13 in deep (13 cm) by 5.94 in high (15 cm).
