Elegant antique Sorrento puzzle box dating to the first half of the 20th century, crafted in wood and decorated on the lid with a refined motif depicting three swallows in flight.
The box retains its authentic character and the beautiful patina acquired over time. It shows signs of wear, minor scratches, and discoloration to both the wood and the interior mirror, all visible in the photographs and fully consistent with its age. One corner, which had been damaged in the past, has been carefully repaired and reattached. These imperfections do not affect either the stability or functionality of the piece and stand as testimony to its long history.
The puzzle mechanism is fully functional and can be seen in operation in the listing video. The original locking key is included.
Perfect as a jewelry box, document box, or elegant decorative accent for any interior.
