Antique Russian Lacquered Box Hand Painted with a Portrait

This superb small box, most likely intended for jewellery, rings or cufflinks, was made in Russia, circa 1920. It is in remarkable original condition and it has been precisely made in heavy, dense timber and finished with a black lacquered exterior and a rich red interior. The superb brass hinged top is beautifully hand painted with a stunning portrait of a very pretty young girl with her hair tied up with a red ribbon, showing her elegant neck and wearing a flattering blue gown. She has her head turned to the side, showing her beautiful face and amazing eyes looking straight at you with a captivating glance. The portrait is signed in red in the right lower corner of the top. In very good condition, circa 1920

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed.
