Fabric Covered Boudoir Box with Antique French Ribbonwork Trim
Found in Paris by me about 45 years ago (yep, I'm an old lady), may I offer this Rococo Boudoir Box. Made of a stiff white cardboard, the outside base material is a plum silk that has faded to a medium pink. The fabric is overlaid/decorated with gold trim, gold mesh and French ribbon garland - pale blue and ombre green coloring. The top of the box has a little bit of tulle and more ribbon and trim as the sides. Height of the box is 4-1/4"; width across the top/bottom is 4-1/4". Traces of the original price tag still show on the bottom. The box is in very fine condition with no tears or pieces missing, maybe a stray thread here or there and maybe a small repair I can spot but that's it. Trays, mirrors, bottles and tiny trinket boxes are hard to find but larger boxes are near impossible. Here's a beauty!
