About the Item

A Beautiful Antique Blue over White Double Overlay Ormolu Mounted Cased Glass Rectangular Box. With a beautiful geometric design cased underneath the top blue layer, which protrudes the design underneath the top blue layer of glass. The bottom layer is white which truly differentiates the light blue upper layer. Both pieces of glass are mounted on an ormolu hinge which holds the top and bottom pieces of glass comfortably together. Glass boxes such as this one are very rare to find in this quality, condition, and size as they are very difficult to hand make and finish. The ormolu mount is all hand-chased and hand-chiseled with the best quality. The prismic geometric pattern is something very unusual and a timeless design. France, Circa: 20th Century.
