Large Decorative Mother-of-Pearl and Brass Lidded Box, 1970s

Offered by: MA+39

Description
A striking decorative box featuring a large, naturally iridescent mother-of-pearl shell mounted within a polished brass frame and fitted to a matching brass base. The oversized shell displays beautiful organic contours and luminous flashes of pink, green, and blue, making each example entirely unique. The hinged lid opens to reveal a spacious brass-lined interior, ideal for storing jewelry, keepsakes, or desk accessories.

Combining natural materials with clean, sculptural lines, this piece embodies the glamorous organic aesthetic popular in the 1970s. Whether displayed on a coffee table, vanity, or bookshelf, it serves as both a functional storage box and a captivating decorative object.
