About This Piece

A French gilt bronze dresser box or jewelry casket from the late 19th century, in the Palais Royal tradition. Beautifully embellished with rope trim around the edges of the lid, four applied bellflower embellishments, and acanthus leaf decoration around the serpentine-shaped body. The lid is decorated with a hand-painted miniature portrait of a French aristocrat — most likely Marie Antoinette — hand signed and under glass. Lined in velvet.

During the 19th century, boxes such as this were sold in the Palais Royal shops of Paris as souvenirs of the Grand Tour — a tradition that makes this piece both a decorative object and a piece of cultural history.

Perfect
Size: 9, Color: Black
These are my second pair of heels from Allegra K, I originally got the nude pair, and after wearing those all night I had to buy a black pair! I don’t use heels so these were comfortable enough to last me all night while still looking nice instead of using flats!

Love love love these shoes. I am veryyy pregnant and heavy (as you can see in the pic). I used them for a wedding (all day long) and they were so comfortable (and I am not used to wearing heels). The size was perfect. I recommend them.

CHEAPLY MADE!
Size: 10, Color: Beige
These are very cheaply made, and they look like it. The ties don’t even have hymned/sown sides.
