Antique Victorian wooden keepsake box — a richly detailed late Victorian to Edwardian-era style piece with a warm walnut and satinwood body, ornate hardware, and a charming spaniel dog lid that stops you in your tracks.
The lid features a decoupage or chromolithograph print of a golden Spaniel in a naturalistic scene, framed by an Art Nouveau scrollwork border — the kind of decorative detail that defined the era. The body is constructed from a warm walnut or mahogany-toned wood, giving it a refined, furniture-quality look.
Original bail-pull side handles and a front clasp add to the authenticity. The interior is unfinished in what I believe is knotty pine — spacious and ready to hold jewelry, letters, keepsakes, or whatever deserves a beautiful home.
