19th century - Period: Napoleon III, circa 1865–1875
Its studded decoration and brass bands evoke Renaissance chests and the medieval imagination as dreamt and reinterpreted in the 19th century.
This historicist aesthetic, very much in vogue under Napoleon III, transforms a simple domestic box into a miniature antique chest, both protective and theatrical. Less conventional than the blackened boxes with stamped varnish, this architectural version has a strong decorative presence, ideal for a cabinet of curiosities interior.
