Curiosity Box

$748

Turned from African ebony in the 1950s or ’60s, this box was once given to Portuguese families living abroad, a keepsake of home with real heft to it. Artist Antje Weber has since found and restored it, adding a bead of deep red stone at the top, capped with a small sterling silver finial and ringed in silver below. The body swells out like a spinning top, its dark surface traced with fine incised lines that catch the light as you turn it. One of a kind, and just as striking from across the room as it is in the hand.

Dimensions: H: 6.7 in; D: 5.12in
Material: Box in Ebony wood with sterling silver applications and red jasper ball
