The
Footed Gold Romanov Double Eagle Box. Limoges Porcelain
encrusted in gold and worked in bas relief simulating chased
gold.
The lid has an elaborate cartouche formed by arabesques in the
center of which is the Romanov Double Eagle crest. The work on
this box has been so exquisitely executed that only by looking
at the underside of the box would you know that it is not gold.
I had to pick it up and look at the base to be certain that it
was porcelain. Looking at it one would never be able to tell that
it was not gold.
Inside a burnished
gold finish with
"A remembrance
of happy days spent together
All my love"
The clasp has a large
cabachon centered within a sweeping leaf setting. Retail: About
$450.00. Our price: $405.00. The Perfect
Gift for anyone you love.
