"Snuffbox - Tortoiseshell, Gold And Miniature Representing A Vestal And Hair Marquetry 18th Century"
Very beautiful tortoiseshell snuffbox with rare hair marquetry work. With in its center a miniature on ivory representing a vestal maintaining the sacred fire. Can be a gift with a promise of chastity. Exterior frame in gold (14k) and certainly the same for that around the miniature. The glass is missing, and the frame is therefore not fixed. A tiny chip on the scale. Diameter of 8 cm. Quick and neat delivery.
