Amazing Marquetry and inlay on this Sorrento Napoli Box C1880. There is craftsmanship of the highest caliber all over this box. Box front drops down to reveal inside completely covered with tiny inlay. Top exterior has a pasta making scene with three gentlemen creating. Lock and key working but the box has a little warp and must be compressed a little bit for the lock to work. Tiny bit of inlay missing on inner lid. See pic. Otherwise in excellent vintage condition with minimal wear. Can be parcel posted.
