Vintage Filigree Gilt Metal and Glass Jewelry Box with Butterfly Motif

This is a rectangular vintage jewelry casket or trinket box, likely dating from the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1960s). The box features a hinged glass lid framed in a decorative, cast gilt metal with a repeating foliate or acanthus leaf pattern. Internally, the box is divided into two sections: one side is lined with a deep crimson or burgundy plush velvet, while the other side features a clear glass floor revealing a decorative interior base. The most distinguishing aesthetic element is an ethereal, three-dimensional butterfly and floral arrangement positioned under the glass lid. This ornament is crafted from delicate materials, possibly feathers or painted silk, in vibrant shades of orange, black, and white, accented by translucent, wisps of faux foliage. Underneath this arrangement is an intricate, openwork gilt metal filigree plate with floral scrolls. The box stands on four small metal feet. In terms of condition, there is visible oxidation and a darkened patina on the metal surfaces, particularly in the recessed areas of the filigree. The glass appears intact, though light surface scratches and dust accumulation are present. The velvet lining shows slight compression consistent with age and use. The craftsmanship is typical of high-quality vanity accessories from the mid-century Hollywood Regency style period, designed for both functionality and ornate display.
