Antique Mamluk Cairo Ware Islamic Script Inlay Lined Box Silver Copper Brass
I believe the style is called Mamluk Cairo-ware Revival. Estate Find. The interior is very interesting, see photos. It probably explains its purpose which to me is unknown.
Very Very Heavy 6 X 4 with a domed top.
This antique box is a beautiful example of Islamic artistry. The intricate inlay of silver and copper on brass creates a stunning gold and silver color palette. The box is estimated to be from the 1900s and has been well-preserved since then. It is an original piece from the Middle East and has not been reproduced. The box is perfect for storing small items and will add a touch of elegance to any room.
