Antique Miniature Trinket Box with Amber Glass Top

A charming miniature trinket box, crafted in brass and topped with a large faceted amber-colored glass stone. The box is delicately engraved with scrolling floral motifs along the sides, lending it both richness and refinement despite its petite size.

Its gemstone-like lid catches the light beautifully, making it not only practical but also decorative.
