Vintage Empire Italian Round Onyx Casket Box with Gold Lion Paw Feet, 1950s

Vintage empire style hand carved round casket with gold lion paw feet. Made in Italy of the highest quality onyx from Pakistan with the original foil seal attached. It’s such an unbelievably FAB piece. 

I acquired it at the familial Castle Hills estate of a former San Antonio mayor and judge considered one of the city's founders. His daughter, who spent countless hours serving on various charity boards, was also an active and prominent member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and the Daughters of the Republic of Texas (DRT). 

This estate had so many lovely things, like the large 19th-century tapestry and Sitzendorf figural candlesticks. I was thrilled to have sourced some of the most fantastic things. 

Pieces like this are why I love sourcing the South and the great state of Texas for vintage and antique estate decor. Shopping estate sales, auctions, charity thrift stores, and antique malls to carefully curate a collection of fantastic finds that have and will stand the test of time is my favorite thing to do.

It measures 2.5” tall  x 4.5” at the widest point.
