About the Item
Jean Després Art Deco Silvered Metal Box, France, circa 1930
Refined Art Deco box in silvered metal designed by the renowned French goldsmith and designer Jean Després. This elegant piece exemplifies Després’ modernist aesthetic, characterized by clean geometric lines and a distinctive chain-link motif framing the lid—an iconic decorative element frequently associated with his work.
The box opens to reveal a finely crafted wooden interior, offering a warm contrast to the cool, polished metal exterior. The underside bears the engraved signature “J. Després”, confirming its authenticity.
A sophisticated and functional object, ideal as a jewelry box or desk accessory, and a fine example of French Art Deco metalwork by one of the period’s most influential designers.
