A fabulous example of a French Fruitwood box carved beautifully carved into the form of a Trunk.
Look closely at the amazing detail, the side handles, the leather stitching, the leather straps and buckles. The box alone is a work of art, and another surprise awaits inside.
There is a push button to the front releasing the lid and once opened the two original perfume bottles are revealed decorated with the original gilding.
A very fine, exquisite and highly collectible box in superb condition. 4'' x 2 5/8'' x 3 3/4'' tall; each bottle measuring 1 3/4'' x 1 1/8'' x 3'' tall. Dating to the late nineteenth century, c.1880.
