- Solid walnut box containing a perfume set, French 18th century works.
- This square-shaped solid walnut chest with key lock and top handle reveals a rich interior lined with an elegant celadon-blue silk fabric adorned with silver braid. The cover features a mirror framed by silver metallic thread embroidery of frieze motifs. The original silk cushion protects the mirror.
- The box contains four cylindrical bottles of varying capacities, made of faceted cut glass and mounted in silver. The stoppers are held in place by an original silver chain. They are accompanied by a funnel and a timbale, also in silver (discharge mark for medium-sized pieces, a caduceus, used in Paris from February 1722 to November 1726).
- This box is distinguished by its completeness (all elements are present, including the cushion, a rare item) and by its state of preservation.
- All silver components are hallmarked.
- Good condition, with three chips on the reverse (see photos). One chain missing on one of the four bottles.
- Dimensions: Width: 19.8 cm , Depth: 18.5 cm , Height: 16.2 cm
