Art Deco Scent Box in Silver with Blue Cabochon Stones, 1930s
A small, intimate object with a quiet presence.
This oval lidded box in silver-toned metal is adorned with deep cobalt blue cabochon stones—like small fragments of night set into a reflective surface. The body is gently curved, punctuated by geometric cut-outs that allow light, air, and scent to pass through.
Originally intended as a scent box or incense holder, it invites a slower rhythm: a place for fragrance, for small rituals, for moments kept to oneself.
The interior bears subtle traces of time, adding to its atmosphere and authenticity.
A piece that sits somewhere between function and poetry.
