Vintage French Ormolu Jewelry Casket – Rectangular Beveled Glass with Floral Gilded Frame
🖤 A piece that whispers of old-world charm and timeless elegance, this vintage French ormolu jewelry casket is the kind of treasure that elevates any space it graces. With its gleaming gold-tone floral frame and rectangular beveled glass panels, it’s as lovely empty as it is filled.
🖤 Designed in the mid-20th century, this casket captures the beauty of French decorative arts. The ornate metalwork features intricate floral details, delicate scrolls, and a soft gilt finish that glows warmly in the light. The clear beveled glass allows you to see the contents within—or simply admire the craftsmanship from every angle.
🖤 Perfect for storing jewelry, small keepsakes, or cherished heirlooms. Or let it stand alone as a striking decorative accent on a vanity, bookshelf, or dresser.
🖤 The interior base is removable. This is common in ormolu boxes of this style—some were never glued in, while others were lightly secured so they could be removed for cleaning or fabric replacement. This does not affect the use or beauty of the casket, especially when it's resting on a surface.
