Antique Box Jewelry & Purse
Here is a early 1900 Jenning's Brothers Art Nouveau jewelry casket. This casket is a gun metal color; possibly silver plated as many of them were in that era. There is an area with some scratches where someone tried to clean it with something abrasive? This casket could be painted over with a similar paint . It is lined with a dark velvety material. The measurement is approximately 6" long and 3" wide and tall. It is marked JB #1574 on the bottom. The box comes with 2 vintage stick pins. One is Mother of Pearl with the initial S. The other pin has a green cabachon and is a gold tone or brass tone metal. The rest are faux pearl pins. It also comes with a black and pink glass necklace. The beads are old. My guess is Czechslovakian glass. It has a spring-ring clasp. The purse is also included. This is a 1920s era metal Chainmail purse. It measures approximately 6.5” x 6”. It has a link chain handle. It is lined with a black satin type of material. The metal frame has an ornate design on both sides. It has a kiss-lock closure. It has normal signs of wear for a purse of this age. I don't believe there are any markings on the purse. This is a neat old grouping of antique items that some lady loved!
