Description

Indulge in the charm of a bygone era with this delightful antique French confectionery box from the early 1900s. Measuring 4 3/4″ by 3 1/4″ (12 cm by 8.2 cm) and standing at 1 3/4″ (4.4 cm) tall (2 3/8″ or 6 cm including the handle), this exquisite box is a testament to a time when even confections were presented with elegance and style.

The box itself is made from heavy cardboard, its surface adorned with a captivating design featuring tiny roses and geometries. The color palette of red, blue, yellow, orange, and purple dances on a light sage green base, all with a glossy finish that adds a touch of sophistication.

What sets this confectionery box apart is its exquisitely contoured shape, accented by a bronze-colored metal handle and closure. But the charm doesn’t end there – open the box to reveal its interior lined with beige paper, embossed with a design of dainty flowers.

A true relic of the past, these refined boxes were once offered by confectioners to their discerning customers, filled to the brim with candies, chocolates, or dainty pastries.

This antique confectionery box is in good condition, though it does bear the gentle wear of time at its corners. You might also notice a slight deformation to the metal handle and some tiny age spots on the interior paper.

As you explore the photos, you’ll come to appreciate the exquisite craftsmanship and character that only a vintage piece like this can offer.
