Snuffbox Napoleon III

Very rare small tobacco box from the napoleon III era for women: this snuffbox is covered with tiny shells in beige and pale pink tones, iridescent. Some are a little damaged, like those that can be found on the beaches. Functional hinges. A marvel of delicacy and finesse, which has survived very well the century that has passed! Dimensions: 6, 7x5x3x4cm.
