In 1940s Italy, certain workshops developed a strong taste for richly decorative surfaces, blending precious metal and organic materials. This box is a refined illustration of this, with mother-of-pearl veneer arranged in a checkerboard pattern.
Italian rectangular box, circa 1940. Silver structure (no visible hallmarks), entirely covered with iridescent natural mother-of-pearl inlays. The hinged lid reveals a simple and functional wooden interior. The construction testifies to precise craftsmanship, with each mother-of-pearl plate individually fitted.
Condition consistent with age. The silver has a uniform patina, with some light marks. Clean interior. Some micro-wear on the corners, without affecting the overall appearance.
Dimensions: height 3 cm, width 8.5 cm, length 17 cm.
A discreet decorative piece, suitable for a desk, dressing table, or coffee table, to hold small objects or correspondence.
