Antique Leather Button-Clasp Box

A charming little antique leather box, complete with its original button clasp closure. Its compact size and clever design make it ideal for holding matches, trinkets, or small keepsakes, while its rich patina and gold-tooled detailing bring an elegant touch of history to any vignette.

Likely crafted in the late 19th to early 20th century, this piece reflects the tradition of fine leatherwork boxes used for everyday luxuries. The button clasp remains intact, and the green leather interior adds both character and function. Its small scale makes it an especially versatile decorative accessory—equally at home styled on a desk, bedside, or within a cabinet of curiosities.
