About the Item
Exceptional Mid-Century Modern French Enamel and Wood Lidded Box, circa 1960
A rare and elegant example of French Mid-Century Modern design, this exquisite lidded box was masterfully crafted in France circa 1960. The square base is formed from richly toned natural wood, offering warmth and organic texture that beautifully contrasts with the vibrant artistry of the lid.
The lid features a striking enamel-on-copper composition, showcasing a bold, warm, modernist motif that evokes the spirit of postwar European design. Its abstract pattern and vivid palette make it a standout decorative object, equally suited for display or refined storage.
Though not signed, the quality of the materials and execution suggest the hand of a skilled artisan. This piece is a testament to the era's fusion of fine craftsmanship and avant-garde aesthetics — a collectible treasure for connoisseurs of 20th-century design.
