Handsome Earlyish 19th Century Marbled Mustard Paint Decorated Papier Mache Snuff Box painting of chair down to her cat at

down to her cat at her feet and open books strewn across the floor

Most are marked with hand-written point values on one side

no mends required

Photos do no justice to the richness of the colors

but I can just picture him sitting at his work table using it to examine and perhaps tinker old watches

Handsome Earlyish 19th Century Marbled Mustard Paint Decorated Papier Mache Snuff Box painting of chair down to her cat atOne of two lovely antique paint decorated, lacquered papier mache snuff boxes listed today, found together, both early 19th century I believe. This one decorated with marbled spattered mustard paint on both faces, to my eye very beautiful and satisfying. 2 5 8" d x 1 2" t. Very good antique condition, with snuff stains to the interior, which I like.
