Stunning piece with etched leaves & grape clusters that have gilt painting. The Elegant Mermaids flank each side on the base of the Alabaster Plinth with Ormolu leaves.

There is a very unique clasp on the front which has a snap closure that moves upwards and downwards to close and open the piece.

The Alabaster plinth is mounted with beaded Dore Bronze and bolted to the base. It stands on 4 ornate geometrically designed legs. This piece is stunning and in excellent condition with light patina.
