A beautiful mid-century trinket box crafted from golden-tone brass and detailed with a delicate hand-inlaid enamel floral motif in warm ivory and terracotta tones. Its gently domed lid lifts to reveal a smoothly polished interior - ideal for storing keepsakes, jewellery, or small curios. The circular silhouette is softened by a light patine that adds quiet character.
Likely produced in India during the 1960s-70s, this style of decorative brassware became a hallmark of post-war export design - celebrated for its artistry, affordability, and enduring charm. The floral detailing nods to champleve techniques, popularised for their blend of colour and engraving. Perfect on a bedside, coffee table, or within a curated vignette.
