A dramatic vintage jewelry box in matte black molded composite, richly decorated with raised rose sprays, scrolling details and a rope-twist border. Contrasting patina worked into the recessed areas emphasizes the sculptural decoration and gives the box its elegant Gothic character.
The substantial oval interior is lined in wine-red suede-textured paper characteristic of jewelry boxes from the 1960s–70s. Its fully removable fitted lid opens to generous storage for bracelets, brooches, earrings and other personal treasures. The maker is unknown.
