About the Item

PRESENTING A STUNNING little French Ring Box from the 18th Century, namely a French Louis XVI Brass and MOP Box with Miniature Portrait of Lady. Box inlaid with mother of Pearl and miniature portrait of a Lady of Importance, in period costume on the lid (18th Century). Signed on the bottom left and the signature looks like: “Auly”. Fleur de Lis motif on lid indicating that is French rather than Austrian. Beautiful chasing on the sides and super detail throughout. Interior lined in original blue/purple padded lining to protect the trinkets. Circa 1770-90, the reign of Louis XVI. Dare I say it, but, the Lady has a striking resemblance to Queen Marie Antoinette! Very high quality! Bought by us at Auction in Ireland 20 years ago.

19th Century Samson Paris Porcelain Trinket Box
By Samson Cie
Located in Dallas, TX
Presenting a gorgeous French 19th century Samson Paris Porcelain Trinket Box probably by Edme Samson. Marked on the base with “Made in France” and unmistakably in the style and manner of Samson. The lid features hand painted floral bouquets on an ivory porcelain background with gold edging, surrounded by a sky blue lid with gold web or crackling effect.. The lid is hinged and the lid and base are edged in floral gilt metal mounts with Fleur De Lis clasp. It sits on 4 gilt metal or ormolu feet. The sides are likewise hand decorated. This wonderful antique hand painted box is just bursting with History. Inspired by Edme Samson of Samson & Co., Paris. we believe (based upon the markings and natural aging) that it was made between 1880– 1890 in France and was meant to resemble an antique of a much earlier period. It is very similar to Sevres pieces with it’s color, decoration and design. Samson specialized in reproducing antiques from the 1600 and 1700s. One of his most interesting works was his Heraldic or Armorial pieces. With this medium sized box, he was not only copying the larger porcelain caskets or coffin boxes...
