This Erhard and Sohne jewellery box dates from circa 1900 in the Jugendstil style. The rectangular piece combines a brass body with a rosewood lid, displaying a rich warm brown and gold colour palette. The lid features intricate brass foliate inlay, scrollwork, and a geometric framework surrounding a patterned central panel. A small drop clasp fastens the front, and the interior reveals a magenta velvet lining alongside a satin lid lining marked by the retailer J.A. Henckels of Solingen, with the Erhard stamp located on the base. The piece remains in nice, original condition. Measuring 4.5 cm high, 12.5 cm wide, and 9.5 cm deep, this compact box suits practical storage roles throughout the home. It rests securely upon a bedside table to hold small personal trinkets, or serves as a refined accessory on a gentleman's library desk for organizing everyday pocket items and keepsakes.

FAQs

Jugendstil was the German counterpart to Art Nouveau, flourishing between 1895 and 1910. It is characterised by stylized natural forms, sinuous whip-lash curves, and geometric organic patterns integrated into functional household items.

Makers frequently combined cast or pressed brass, bronze, and polished pewter with inlaid hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, occasionally adding enamel or velvet linings for functional protection.

Authentic items from this era feature precise joinery, age-appropriate patination on metal surfaces, and original maker stamps or marks, such as the embossed lion symbol associated with maker Erhard & Sohne.

Place the box on a dressing table, bedside table, or layered atop books on a coffee table to add historical texture and functional storage for small items.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive liquid polishes, excessive moisture, or harsh chemicals that can strip original patination or loosen thin wood inlays.
