ANTIQUE FRENCH NAPOLEON III Ebony & Inlaid Brass CAVE A LIQUEUR DECANTER BOX A/F
ANTIQUE FRENCH NAPOLEON III Ebony & Inlaid Brass CAVE A LIQUEUR DECANTER BOX A/F ... Click images to enlarge Description AN ANTIQUE 19th CENTURY NAPOLEON III FRENCH INLAID BRASS CAVE A LIQUEUR
Measures 10" tall, 12.5" wide and 9.5" deep
Dating from the period of the reign of Napleon III, circa 1870's
Made from ebonised wood with elaborate inlaid brass & boule decoration ; lovely serpentine front ; this would have been a very high quality and expensive piece ; has a fitted lacquered rosewood veneer interior to accomodate four decanters and up to 20 glasses ..... none of the glassware is present.
Condition : The lid is in poor condition, with losses to the ebonised veneer together with a corner and central brass motif missing. To be fair, apart from this, the rest of the box is very good ~ some minor little losses here and there but really nothing particularly noteworthy for an original unrestored box. Please refer to the detailed photographs, they are an accurate representation of the condition..
A great item for someone with the necessary skills and time. If you have any questions, please ask.
Fantastic potential !
Nominal low start ... Good Luck
