Antique art buy NOUVEAU Bronze Flowers Casket JEWELRY Footed Box c1900

Here is a gorgeous antique Art Nouveau bronze metal jewelry/casket box. This one is a footed box with the four legs raising it off the surface. It has the typical organic floral designs on the surround . The box looks to have replacement cloth material inside the lid and base. Most of the time the old material was silk and torn/ripped up whenever I se these boxes. The back hinge works fine, which is good as many times these old boxes have a broken hinge. The bottom has no marking and I detect no cracks in the metal. I do see some worn areas of paint ( which is over the bronze and original), from handling over the last buy century. Mostly on the back of the top where someone's fingers would hold it to open it. Most of these boxes date to the very early 1900s to before 1915.

Perfect for Victorian,Art Nouveau,Romantic,Shabby chic, and Eclectic decors.
