ABOUT PRODUCTID 11675
This jewelry casket, crafted from silver-plated brass in early 20th-century Sweden, is a reflection of neoclassical influences prevalent at the turn of the century. The rectangular form is accentuated by a domed, beveled lid crowned with a central oval medallion encircled by a beaded border and delicate vegetal motifs. Its cool, subtly bluish silver surface bears a refined, soft patina, while the raised decorative details and edges catch the light with a satin-like sheen. The upper frieze and sides are adorned with repeating fan-shaped and geometric neoclassical patterns in low relief, and the profiled base with fine beaded trim ensures both stability and visual grounding. The interior is lined with linen. Construction is precise, featuring crisp joints and the absence of modern fasteners. Minor surface scratches, small spots of tarnish, and gentle signs of use are visible, along with the absence of a lock. The overall condition is rated as very good, with no significant damage and all decorative elements appearing original.The casket echoes the voice of early 20th-century bourgeois interiors, where understated refinement and daily utility were equally valued. Its silvery surface softly reflects light, creating a quiet play of highlights, while subtle reliefs trace the rituals of everyday life—a place for small secrets, keepsakes, or jewelry. Each detail speaks of the care bestowed by past
