Three thick stacked books with gold tooled accents and paper pages comprise the box for this C.1850-60 tantalus from France. Dark brown leather interior with gold tooling runs along side the compartments which house three small round shoulder decanters with 24K gold floral design and ground stoppers. The nine small glasses have the same 24K gold rim. One glass missing and fit into holes outlined in brass. The interior of the lid offers the same dark brown leather with gold tooling along the edges with a diamond patterned leather lid and embossed design. All decanters and glasses in excellent condition. The box has minor loss of leather in tiny areas along the spines as seen in the photo and slight scuffing to top which adds to the aged look. The "pages" are in wonderful condition. A handsome set. Measures 10L X 8.25D X 5.5H.
