About the Item
This striking Art Deco-era French box is crafted in steel (marked "ACIER") and features an elegant geometric design adorned with vibrant blue sapphires set in 18k yellow gold. The precision-set sapphires create a visually captivating motif on the box lid, typical of refined Art Deco craftsmanship.
French hallmarks appear on the rim, including a diamond-shaped (lozenge) maker's mark, a traditional French format for registering goldsmiths and metalworkers. The word "ACIER" confirms the body is stainless steel, a choice material for luxury decorative boxes and compact cases in the early to mid-20th century, commonly found in French and Swiss manufacture. The diamond-shaped hallmark contains a symbol and may represent the maker or workshop; this format is associated with both precious and non-precious metal items depending on the content and frame shape.
This piece exemplifies the sophisticated engineering and aesthetic appeal of Art Deco accessories, combining the sleek durability of steel with the warmth of gold and the glitter of genuine sapphires. Whether used as a compact, presentation box, or collectible objet d'art, it offers timeless appeal for any luxury collection.
