Rectangular Green Onyx Box and Cover, 1960s
Rectangular Green Onyx Box and Cover, 1960s A box and cover of rectangular form constructed from joined sections of green veined onyx, the lid with a gilt metal hinge. Onyx is named from the Greek 'ónux', meaning “nail,” or “claw,” and is a variety of the mineral chalcedony, a kind of quartz. Onyx with flesh-coloured and white bands can sometimes resemble a fingernail which explains the name but is obviously not in evidence here. These boxes are usually attributed to Italian makers with a mid twentieth century dating which seems reasonable here.| Size: | W 13 cm D 9 cm H 4 cm |
| Weight: | 645 grams |
| Date: | 1960s |
| Condition: | Good condition, no issues |
| Estimate: | £20 – 30 |
