Mid Century Decorative Carved Valuables Box

Resting on four paw feet and opening via two rear butterfly hinges, this attractive carved box is featured on top with an oval highly carved applique cartouche, monogrammed with the letters “VHW” (see images). The rest of the top is bordered by floral leaf carving, and the top closes with a strap hasp. There is a continuous “S” scroll pattern carved along the entire front. Light colored figured knotty pine decorates the remainder of the wood surfaces. Dentil carved handles to each end complete the decoration. The interior is green felt lined with ample room for storage of jewelry or private papers. The box is in all original condition with no repairs or restoration of any kind.
