Set of 6 vintage jewelry boxes – Jordan, Japan and decorative scenes – repoussé metal Copper - Alloy Description: Set of six elegant vintage repoussé metal jewelry boxes, gathered in a particularly original decorative lot. The main piece of this set is a very beautiful repoussed copper jewelry box from Jordan, decorated around the Petra theme, the famous “Red Rose City.” The other five boxes complete the lot with different relief decorations, including figurative, floral and pastoral scenes. 1. Repoussé copper box – Jordan – Petra “Red Rose City” The centerpiece of this set is a superb vintage repoussé copper jewelry box from Jordan, in excellent overall condition. Its lid features a magnificent relief representation of the facade of Petra’s Treasury, with its monumental architecture, columns and numerous details. The inscriptions “JORDAN” and “Petra Red Rose City” are visible on the lid. The decoration is particularly rich and worked: the various faces of the box are adorned with floral and vegetal motifs in relief, with roses, leaves, volutes and arabesques. The four feet are also very worked and decorative. The box has a particularly heavy and robust structure, with beautiful fittings and a worked metal hinge. Its copper/gold finish and patina give it a great presence. The interior is lined with black velvet, in very good condition, offering an elegant setting for jewelry, small precious objects or mementos. This box constitutes a very handsome decorative piece and an interesting souvenir of Jordan, particularly suitable for Petra enthusiasts, Oriental craftsmanship, repoussé metal and vintage travel objects. Dimensions: about 9.5 × 7 × 4 cm Weight: about 233 g Origin: Jordan Material: repoussé copper Interior: black velvet Condition: excellent condition The lot also includes three boxes bearing the inscription “Japan” under their base, each with a different and particularly elaborate decor.

Dimensions: 8.5 × 5.5 × 4 cm Weight: 185 g Marking: “Japan” under the box Interior: red velvet, slightly stained Condition: good vintage condition 3. Heart-shaped box – gallant scene The lot also includes a heart-shaped box, adorned with a very beautiful figurative relief scene depicting three figures in old-fashioned costumes. The contours and sides are richly decorated with volutes, foliage and raised ornaments. The box rests on four decorative worked feet. Its finish presents a silvered appearance, possibly indicating silver plating, though this cannot be confirmed in the absence of a hallmark or analysis. Dimensions: 9 × 9 × 4 cm Weight: 205 g Interior: clean red velvet Condition: good vintage condition 4. Octagonal box – pastoral scene Finally, the lot includes a pretty rectangular box with cut corners, featuring a magnificent pastoral relief scene depicting a person seated among several sheep, in a rural landscape. The decoration is very detailed, with a beaded border, vegetal elements and numerous relief details. The sides are also worked and the box rests on four small decorative feet. Dimensions: 9 × 7 × 4 cm Weight: 185 g Interior: clean red velvet Condition: good vintage condition Overall condition of the lot Box 5 – red and silver floral decor This pretty box features a particularly rich decor of numerous flowers and relief ornaments, with a red background visible between decorative elements and a central diamond-shaped motif.

Dimensions: 7 × 5.5 × 4 cm Weight: 132 g Marking: “Japan” under the box Interior: clean red velvet Condition: good vintage condition The Jordanian copper box constitutes the main piece and is in excellent condition. The remaining five boxes are vintage pieces in good overall condition, with very beautiful relief decorations. They may show some small traces typical of their age and prior use, including slight marks or signs of wear, without detracting from their decorative interest. All feature a velvet interior and each rests on four decorative feet. Photos allow precise viewing of the decorations, reliefs, details, interiors and the condition of each box. Prospective buyers are invited to carefully consult all photos before purchase. Total weight of the six boxes: about 1.100 kg. A particularly decorative set combining a beautiful repoussé Jordanian copper piece, three boxes bearing the “Japan” inscription and two other vintage boxes with original figurative scenes, with varied styles and decorations. (I chose to classify this lot as “excellent condition,” primarily because of its centerpiece: the very beautiful repoussé copper box from Jordan, in excellent overall condition and particularly well preserved. The five other boxes complete and enrich this fine set. They are in good vintage condition, with very beautiful relief decorations, but may show a few small traces, marks or signs of time related to their age and past use. Please carefully review all photographs, which allow appreciation of the details, reliefs, interiors, markings and the condition of each of the six boxes before bidding.)
