More Information

Antique Micro Mosaic Gilt Box Depicting Roman Colosseum. An antique gilt box with enamel decorations, ball feet, and a micro mosaic top depicting the Roman Colosseum. The box has a cream satin interior with the maker, Cesare Roccheggiani, credited on the inner lid. The box's hinges are slightly damaged, making the lid close slightly off-centre. There is additional minor damage and tarnishing to the gilt exterior and enamel flowers, and the interior would benefit from general cleaning.
