Antique MURANO MOSER ENAMELED GLASS TRINKET BOX HINGED LID ORMOLU SIGNED:
$250.00

THIS IS AN EARLY ENAMELED GLASS BOX, PERHAPS MOSER, PERHAPS ITALIAN. IT ISSIGNED WITH THREE GOLD INITIALS ON THE BOTTOM BEVEL ON THERIGHT SIDE OF THE BOX. HOWEVER, THE LETTERS ARE UNREADABLE. I WOULDLOVE TO KNOW WHO CREATED THIS EXQUISITE WORK OF ART.
THE MOST EXCITING THING ABOUT THIS PIECE IS THE BEAUTIFUL ENAMELINGWHICH COVERS ALL SIDES EXCEPT THE BOTTOM.
IT IS IN EXCELLENT ANTIQUE CONDITION. ALL ENAMELING IN LOVELY CONDITION;THE METAL ORMOLU IS WITHOUT FLAW. THERE IS A CHIP ON THE INSIDE BOTTOM RIM HIDDEN BEHIND THEORMOLU. AS I DID NOT DISCOVER THIS UNTIL AFTERI HAD LISTED IT, AND I HAVE ADDED A PHOTO. (NUMBER #10) IT IS COMPLETELY SMOOTH ANDROUNDED WITH NO SHARP EDGES, SO IT WAS PROBABLY DONE AT THE TIMEOF ITS CREATION, AS THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE ORMOLU RIM, THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT OF WEAR TO THE BOTTOM WHICH IS NOT UNUSUALIN PIECES OF THIS AGE. I WOULD GUESS IT IS AT LEAST 100 YEARS OLD, BUTCANNOT BE SURE OF ITS EXACT AGE.
THE GLASS IS OF THE FINEST QUALITY, POLISHED, GROUND ON THE BOTTOM,BEVELEDON EVERY EDGE, A REAL TREASURE. THE PIECE IS GORGEOUS FROM ANY ANGLE.
I HAVE TAKEN PHOTOS FROM EVERY ANGLE AND OF EVERY SIDE. SOME PHOTOSARE WITH FLASH AND SOME WITHOUT. IT IS A VERY DIFFICULT PIECETO PHOTOGRAPH, AND THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO IT THE JUSTICE ITDESERVES.
IT IS RECTANGULAR IN SHAPE AND IS ABOUT 4-1/2\" BY 3-1/2\". IT IS APPROXIMATELY 2-3/4\" DEEP (TOP TO BOTTOM).
