Item Details
Here's a very unusual Victorian shell work box with 4 painted scenes and a painted interior. It dates from the late 19th century. It measures 8 1/4" long and 5" wide. It's 5 1/4" high in the back and about 3 1/4" high in the front. There are a couple of very minor condition issues. There is a shell missing at 2 of the corners of the top and the little mirror inside is split, but overall it's in very good shape for its age. The shells could be cleaned a little, but I like the aged look in this case.
The scenes of houses and trees on each side have a lot of charm. The box is a very special piece of folk art.
