About the Item

We present you this exquisite gilded bronze box hailing from the Napoleon III period. It represents a scene from Classical Antiquity that captures the romantic rendezvous between two lovers, set against a backdrop of a woman harvesting on the right and a man's arrival by boat on the left. The couple is accompanied by a cupid, symbolising desire, erotic love, attraction and affection. The inside of the box is elegantly lined with vintage velvet fabric in gold-yellow. The sides of the box are adorned with ornamental gadroon edging. With its ornate design, it can be a stylish addition to any table or dresser and it is suitable for either keeping jewellery or correspondence.
