Writing Box 1897 - 1903

This Writing Box, created between 1897 and 1903, is a beautiful example of Italian craftsmanship. The box is made of bronze and features intricate carvings and decorations. The box, possibly produced in the Manifattura di Signa workshop in Florence, showcases a high level of detail and artistry, typical of the late 19th-century Italian decorative arts. This piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, serves as a testament to the enduring tradition of Italian craftsmanship and the beauty of decorative objects.
