Description
A beautifully made parquetry box dating from the late 19th or early 20th century, with a star inlay design to the centre of the lid, the rest of the box decorated with a herringbone pattern surrounded by a chequered border.
This lovely box had me scratching my head when I first received it, as I couldn’t figure out how to open it! After a while I realised that there is a cunningly concealed inset button that you press on the side of the box, which releases the spring catch to open the lid - very clever and neat! It has parquetry herringbone pattern decoration all over, with an attractive star design to the centre of the lid.
