About the Item
This exquisite lidded bonbonnière was crafted in Italy during the first half of the 20th century and showcases the elegance of fine materials and skilled craftsmanship. Made from a fresh green marble—sometimes also referred to as alabaster—it has a subtle, natural veining that brings life and texture to the piece. The stone’s semi-translucent quality allows light to pass through softly, giving it a gentle, almost luminous presence.
The marble body is complemented by high-quality brass mounts richly decorated with antique-style ornaments, including a patera frieze, egg-and-dart motif, and bead detailing. The handles feature graceful floral scrolls, adding a refined touch. As a striking finishing detail, the lid is topped with a mounted pearl (untested for authenticity), which serves as both a decorative focal point and functional grip.
A luxurious object that blends functionality with timeless design, this Italian bonbonnière makes a beautiful addition to any collection of fine decorative arts, whether used for sweets, small treasures, or simply as an elegant display piece.
