Toilet box 1804 - 1814

“Toilet box” is an intricate work of marquetry, a decorative art technique that uses various woods to create a design on the surface. This particular box, crafted by Jean-Pierre Droz between 1804 and 1814, is a testament to the skill of the artist. It showcases a sophisticated design featuring a mirror, compartments, and small, decorative boxes. This ornate piece is a fine example of the craftsmanship and artistry of the early 19th century and is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
