Antique 18th Century French Three-Colour 18K Gold Snuff Box c.1780
About the Item
Antique late 18th Century French magnificent three-coloured 18k gold snuff box. During the reign of Louis XVI, French artisans demonstrated their unparalleled skill in crafting magnificent gold boxes, symbols of prestige and affluence often exchanged as gifts among the aristocracy.
The surface is embellished with intricate engine-turned decoration and applied with floral motifs in three colours of gold, the lid applied with an ornate diamond set thumb-piece. Hallmarked with a three leaf hallmark (unknown to me).
