Antique French Gilt Bronze / Brass Jewellery Casket with Hand-Painted Miniature Portrait – 19th Century
A fine quality 19th-century French gilt bronze/brass jewellery casket, beautifully made and richly decorated with intricate floral and swag detailing typical of elegant French decorative metalwork of the period.

The casket is solid and well constructed, with a pleasing weight and impressive craftsmanship throughout. The interior is lined in green velvet, providing a soft setting for storing jewellery, trinkets, or keepsakes.
