Ornate Round Ormolu & Beveled Glass Jewelry Casket — Vintage Filigree Vanity Box
This exquisite round ormolu jewelry casket is a true vintage treasure, crafted with elaborate pierced filigree, warm gold metalwork, and a sparkling beveled glass lid. Raised on decorative rococo-style feet and lined with its original velvet interior, it’s the perfect piece to elevate any vanity, dressing table, or mirrored tray.
History: Ormolu trinket boxes became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, especially during the Victorian and Edwardian eras when highly decorative dressing-table accessories symbolized luxury and refinement. Makers such as Matson, Stylebuilt, and Goldberg helped popularize this style in America, drawing inspiration from European gilt-bronze works. The combination of pierced metalwork and beveled glass was designed to catch candlelight and lamplight, giving each box a soft, jewel-like glow that collectors still adore today.
It measures 6” long x 4.25” deep x 3.25” tall.
Pieces like this are why I love Sourcing the South and the great state of Texas- especially Round Top- for heirloom estate decor…shopping estate sales, online auctions, charity thrift stores, and antique malls to carefully curate a collection of fantastic vintage and antique finds that have and will stand the test of time.
