About the Item

Immerse yourself in the elegance of the Biedermeier era with this exquisite lidded box made of overlay glass. This piece stands out due to its masterful craftsmanship and the harmonious combination of materials. The box is crafted from white milk glass on the inside, giving it a radiant purity. It is enveloped on the outside by vibrant red glass, creating an impressive contrast with the delicate interior. This refined use of color is characteristic of overlay glass and gives the box a distinctive aesthetic. A special highlight is the encircling brass mount. Not only does it protect the edge of the box, but it also adds an exquisite decorative touch. The fine brass border is adorned with intricate scrollwork, reflecting the craftsmanship of this era. This Biedermeier lidded box is not just a functional object but also an artistic decoration piece that enriches any room with its timeless beauty. It is an indispensable collectible for lovers of antiques and historical glass art.
