Italian Ribbed Silver-Tone Table Box with Wood Interior

A refined ribbed metal table box with a warm wood-lined interior, sourced in Italy.

The exterior is defined by its regular linear surface, giving the piece an architectural quality with Art Deco influence. The contrast between the cool polished silver-tone metal and the wood interior adds warmth and refinement, making it both decorative and practical.

Likely originally used as a cigarette box, it works beautifully today as a small table box for matches, jewellery, keepsakes or desk objects.
