Travel Box With Japanese Decor, Napoleon III Period - Mid-19th Century

Black lacquer box with Japanese-style gilded decorations with curved shapes and four prominent angles. This small chest opens with a relief lid, with projecting angles. These corners are embellished with fine polychrome decorations, representing traditional Asian collective scenes. In its center, the opening is embellished with a design partially erased over time, in no way detracting from the charm of the object. The sides of this box are framed with golden threads emphasizing the scenes of Japanese daily life. The flap is equipped with a functional lock and its original key. Once opened, this box reveals a storage compartment made up of compartments of different sizes and two small lids with golden arabesques. This old travel box has the charm of oriental works. You can have your personal belongings there and bring a touch of poetry to your interior. ********* Period: Mid 19th century.
