19th Century Danish Box Circa 1880

This exquisite 19th-century Danish box, dating to circa 1880, showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of the era. Made from warm walnut wood, the box features a finely inlaid floral motif on the lid, rendered in light and dark contrasting veneers that highlight its Art Nouveau influence. The intricate design of roses and leaves lends the piece a delicate charm and timeless appeal.

The box opens to reveal a beautifully finished interior with a removable tray, offering practical storage for small items such as jewelry, keepsakes, or stationery. The smooth interior surfaces and precise joinery demonstrate the high level of craftsmanship typical of Danish woodworking traditions.
A decorative brass escutcheon with a floral design adds a sophisticated touch to the front of the box, complementing the natural warmth of the wood. Compact yet striking, this piece is both functional and ornamental, making it a versatile addition to any collection of antique decorative arts or a thoughtful gift. A true testament to late 19th-century Danish design.
