Large vintage cedar jewelry or keepsake box featuring richly carved/embossed floral decoration across the lid and front. The lid is accented with an oval pastoral scene depicting figures in a countryside setting, giving the box a romantic mid-century appearance.
The hinged lid opens to reveal an interior mirror and storage area, making it suitable for jewelry, keepsakes, letters, photographs or other treasured objects.
Approximately 11” wide x 5½” high; depth to be added.
Vintage condition with expected surface scratches, finish wear and small nicks from age and use. The original mirror shows significant age-related desilvering and darkened areas, particularly around the edges, as shown in the photographs. This aging gives the piece a wonderful old dresser-box character but should be considered when purchasing.
A substantial and decorative vintage cedar box that would display beautifully on a dresser, vanity or tabletop.
Estimated date: circa 1940s–1950s
