We are pleased to offer a magnificent German lady's sewing box. Wonderfully decorated it has two sheves inside that are divided into a series of little compartments for threads etc. Underneath the two sheves is a satin covered bottom probably for other accoutrements.

It is beautifully decorated to the outside. Not by inlaid woods, but by a burning method and the application of stains.It is decorated somewhat in the style of Gallé in the 1880s.

The top has some gentle rubbing.

To the top is written "Es muss ein Wunderbaris sein Ums Leiben zweier Seelen". There are two brass handles to the sides.

There is some wear to the satin lining, there is some staining as well. All in all gorgeous.
