Box, ca. 1875, French
Made by the illustrious Parisian firm Falize, this trilobed box is decorated in the Persian taste with flowers and foliage enameled in deep red, green, dark and turquoise blue, and yellow on a white ground. The gold-rimmed lid is decorated with ogee-shaped lappets on a matte ground and edged with beading that recalls the eighteenth-century French tradition of finely crafted gold boxes.
