Modernist Tall Box with Wood Marquetry Patchwork, 1970s

About the Item

This remarkable modernist decorative box dates back to the 1970s. It boasts a tall structure that's sure to capture anyone's attention. The box is square-shaped and features an interior made of solid tropical wood. What's unique about this box is the geometric wood marquetry patchwork that adds a touch of elegance to its overall design. A chromed metal finial handle and feet complement the box's aesthetic appeal. There is no visible maker's mark. The box is in good condition, with a couple of stress hairlines on the marquetry, especially on the lid and one on the side, but they do not significantly affect the overall appearance. Check the close-up. Measurements: 8 in wide (20 cm) x 8 in deep (20 cm) x 13 in high (33 cm).
