Large 19th c. lacquered jewelry box with floral design done in gold leaf and inlaid mother of pearl. Some wear of paint and finish as expected. The top lifts and reveals an open velvet lined compartment. Two doors open in the front to reveal four drawers. There is missing trim on one of the doors. Each drawer has mother of pearl pulls, although a few are missing. Two drawers are lined with silk and or velvet and two are not. It has a lock but there is no key.
