About the Item
Crafted entirely with an exceptionally detailed enamel technique known as pliqué-à-jour, this French box is a luxurious objet d'art. Exhibiting a subtle translucence like that of stained glass, a floral border surrounds a delightful bouquet. Not to be outdone by its lid, the glass box also features a marvelous cut glass pattern to match its ornate top. Both geometric and organic, this treasure is a quintessential and luxurious example of Art Nouveau craftsmanship at its finest.
Pliqué-à-jour achieved great popularity during the Art Nouveau period and was utilized by master jewelers throughout Europe and the United States, including artisans employed by Fabergé to Tiffany Studios. The technique is similar to cloisonné in which viscous enamels are applied in cells. In pliqué-à-jour, however, there is no backing to the cell, so light can transmit through the translucent enamel, giving the finished piece an exceptional radiance.

Carved Citrine Pill Box
Located in New Orleans, LA
This exquisite French pill box combines the mastery of the French goldsmithing tradition with the radiance of citrine. The box was crafted by the celebrated French jeweler Gustave-Roger Sandoz, who was renowned for producing exceptional pieces with a variety of gems in the Art Nouveau style. In this example, he brilliantly combined pieces of highly translucent, golden citrine with gold to create the exquisite box. The texture of the carving is exceptional, with a natural and dynamic motif that evokes the very best tenets of the Art Nouveau style. The gold rim is further decorated with tiny beads, while a pearl-mounted gold leaf finial completes the exceptional piece.
