The lace-like detailing and luminous glass give this piece a jewel-box glow—perfect for storing jewelry, rosaries, keepsakes, or simply displaying atop a mirrored tray. History: Ormolu trinket and jewelry caskets rose to popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, especially during the Victorian and Edwardian eras when dressing-table décor became highly ornate. Many pieces in this style were produced by American makers such as Matson, Stylebuilt, and Goldberg, as well as European workshops known for their fine metal casting. The combination of pierced filigree and beveled glass was intentionally designed to catch lamplight and candlelight, creating a soft, luxurious sparkle still beloved by collectors today. It measures 9” long x 4” deep x 2.75” tall Pieces like this are why I love Sourcing the South and the great state of Texas- especially Round Top- for heirloom estate decor…shopping estate sales, online auctions, charity thrift stores, and antique malls to carefully curate a collection of fantastic vintage and antique finds that have and will stand the test of time. $172 INCLUDES INSURED SHIPPING in the continental US.Also available for pick up at our Liberty Hill showroom just north of Austin, TX. 🚚Hawaii and Alaska residents, please contact me for a shipping quote🚚 🛍️All Sales As-Is and Final.
