Exceptional quality burl walnut Jewelry Box. It dates about
1890. The engraved bevelled glass top make this piece quite
rare. The brass decoration occurs only on the front and top of
the piece instead of all around the body. This indicates that it
was meant to be a decorative showpiece, not just a function box.
Boxes intended for the rigors of military campaigns had
substantial brass fittings along every edge and at every corner.
It still retains its original jewelry insert. The bottom is also lined
in purple velvet as well. It has compartments in the top tray for
a watch, rings, bracelets and even cuff links! A fabulous piece!
