19th Century French Cut Crystal & Ormolu Jewelry Casket

An exquisite 19th-century French crystal jewelry casket, masterfully crafted with diamond-cut faceting that captures and reflects the light in every direction. The clarity of the crystal pairs beautifully with the warm gleam of its original gilt bronze (ormolu) mount, featuring a finely detailed clasp adorned with a laurel wreath motif.

Once used to safeguard a lady’s most cherished keepsakes—rings, pearls, or perfume bottles—this casket is as functional as it is decorative. The hinged lid opens smoothly, revealing the spacious interior, perfect for storing jewelry or displaying as a statement piece on a vanity, writing desk, or bibliothèque.

A true testament to 19th-century French craftsmanship, these caskets have become highly sought-after collectibles, blending refinement and rarity.
