About the Item
This is a charming Art Deco period jewelry or trinket box, dating to circa 1920s-1930s, showcasing the era's distinctive geometric design and fine craftsmanship.
The box features an eye-catching lid composed of mixed hardwoods arranged in a striking stepped pyramid or ziggurat pattern—a quintessentially Art Deco motif that echoes the architectural forms popular during the period. The alternating light and dark wood inlays, likely featuring maple or birch contrasted with walnut, create a dynamic visual effect.
The bombé-form case exhibits beautifully figured walnut with a warm, honey-toned patina. The serpentine sides flow into an elaborately scalloped base that adds movement and sculptural interest to the form. A decorative brass escutcheon and key adorns the front, providing both ornamental detail and functional purpose.
The interior reveals thoughtful design with its original mirror affixed to the underside of the lid—now showing romantic age-appropriate foxing and silvering loss. The mirror is etched with the Italian word "Auguri" meaning "Congratulations." The lower compartment is lined with segmented mirror pieces set off by a red border accent, perfect for organizing jewelry, small treasures, or keepsakes.
Raised on a distinctive scalloped wooden base that elevates the piece both literally and aesthetically, this box exemplifies the attention to detail characteristic of quality Art Deco decorative arts.
Surprise your loved one with a piece of history!
