Napoléon III French Velvet Box French antiques and artistryA beautiful Napolon III French velvet box with a tufted silk interior, decorative brass medallion, and petite round feet. The exterior is wrapped in a faded neutral golden green velvet and accented with nailhead trim, while the interior features ruched and buttoned silk in a delicate pinkish peach tone. Signs of wear throughout tell the story of age and use, adding to its allure. The box closes smoothly and retains its original hardware and lining. 3"
