Small Round Box, Ivory Engraved With Foliage, Flowers, Decorated In Gold And Silver

A charming little antique circular box with an oblong profile, known as a “savonnette” model, used for cosmetics or other items.
* 19th century *
With a simple, rounded shape—smooth and soft, pleasant to hold in the palm of your hand—this charming little object is in good condition, though the metal could be cleaner and shinier (I didn’t take the time to clean it).
Its lid is adorned with a very pretty engraved design featuring leafy scrolls, clasps, and garlands of flowers accented in gold and silver.

Additional information: Ivory specimen of Elephantidae spp (I / A) pre-agreement, prior to June 1, 1947 in accordance with CE Regulation 338/97 of 12/09/1996 art.2-Wmc. For an exit from the EU, a CITES re-export will be necessary, this being the responsibility of the future purchaser. The issuance of such a document is not automatic. The future purchaser will have to inquire about the conditions of re-export because some countries do not allow the introduction of ivory specimens of Elephantidae on their territory.
