"Well-loved" (as the kids say today)
An early antique ruby red casket beveled Bohemian glass box with gold gild foliate decoration. Probably Moser? Made in the mid to late 1800s judging from how its made and the design of the handpainted foliate gold gilt.
The hinge works well. The lock has no key.
The condition is good considering its age. There is a lot of the gold gilt loss from handling and dusting over about 159 years. The lid ...must have been reglued at some point because if you look at images #11 and # 12, you can see that the bronze on the top corner of the lid is a little bent (#11) and there is a little space at the back between the glass and bronze (#12). Of course, the bottom is very scratched, see image #9.
Height about - 4"Width - 5"Depth - 3 3/8" Weight - 2lbs
