These exquisite creations have long been cherished by individuals seeking to safeguard their most precious possessions. From timeless masterpieces to whimsical trinket holders, each box tells its own unique story. Intriguingly, some jewellery boxes themselves are works of art. Take "Her Idol, " a mesmerizing c. 1868-70 oil on canvas painting that depicts a delicate box adorned with intricate carvings and shimmering gemstones. It stands as an ode to craftsmanship and devotion. Venturing further, we encounter "A Vanitas Still Life of Musical Instruments and Manuscripts. " This evocative piece captures the essence of transience through an elegantly crafted jewellery box placed amidst musical instruments and manuscripts—a poignant reminder of life's fleeting nature. "The Cavaliers Dream, " an oil on canvas masterpiece from 131-0058472, transports us back in time with its depiction of a lavish jewel-studded box nestled among opulent fabrics. Its presence evokes dreams of grandeur and indulgence. Delving deeper into history, we stumble upon "Cruelty in Perfection, " an engraving from 1751 that showcases a hauntingly beautiful jewellery box symbolizing vanity's destructive power—an allegory for society's obsession with material wealth. Turning our attention towards more contemporary pieces, "The Sultans Favourite" captivates us with its delicate watercolor rendering over pencil on canvas. The image reveals an intricately designed jewelry box fit for royalty—a testament to opulence transcending time. Moving forward in time brings us to MS 418, 419 Psyche-coiffeuse and jewelry box—masterfully executed using walnut, ivory & wrought iron around 1926-1929.
