Antique Bas-Relief Rose Art Nouveau Jewelry Casket Trinket Box - Footed with store Gold Finish Patented 170 circa 1904

store This beautiful and ornate Art Nouveau period Jewelry Casket is quite stunning, and in really good condition for the age. It has this gold finish (not real gold) that is most likely brass. However much of that finish has worn off on the lid, and some on the sides, and exposed the copper under plating. But to me this rather adds to the appeal, and it still shines beautifully regardless. I found several similar boxes on other sites and they are not in nearly as nice of condition. Also I found one other exact match on another site. It too is not nearly as nice and is stamped 'Patented 170 4/4 1904'. This one is merely stamped 'Patented 170'. Lastly the pleated liner is tattered and is gone from the bottom (see photos). But it still has the rope edging, which is in nice condition.

Measures: 4.75" long x 3.25" wide x 3.5" tall
