The front, back, and top panels are adorned with raised white enamel \"dot\" details and an elegant central floral motif.Ornate Bronze/Brass Fittings: The casket is securely mounted in its original metal framework, complete with heavy, dual drop-beaded side bale handles and a classical lock-ready front clasp.Impressive Large Size: Unlike the common 3-inch vanity boxes often found on the market, this is a substantial dresser-sized piece measuring approximately 5\" Length × 5\" Width × 3\" Height.Condition Report:This antique casket is in excellent condition for its age. There are no chips, cracks, or deep scratches anywhere on the glass panels. The extensive gold enamel decoration remains beautifully vibrant with only minor, expected age-related surface wear. The hinge operates smoothly, and the lid holds itself open securely.
