Large Vintage Russian Malachite & Stone Mosaic Casket (23cm) Jewellery Box
A stunning, heavy, and substantial vintage jewelry casket / trinket box, originating from the Ural Mountains (USSR era). This is a large statement piece measuring 23cm x 19cm x 6cm, far larger than the common small trinket boxes.
The body is crafted from genuine Malachite veneer, showcasing the beautiful natural banded green "eye" patterns. The lid features an intricate "Ural Stone Painting"—a mosaic landscape created from crushed minerals like Jasper and Quartz, depicting a serene forest and river scene.
The box features a silver-tone decorative "rope" trim and a delicate filigree metal clasp.
Condition Report:
As seen in the photos, this is slightly as found vintage item. There is a small visible chip to the malachite veneer on the corner (see close-up images). The interior and the stone mosaic on the lid are in lovely condition. The metalwork shows a natural aged patina with slight movement. Please review all photos carefully as they form part of the description.
