Two Decorative Shellwork Trinket Boxes
A charming pair of decorative shellwork trinket boxes, each extensively inlaid with assorted natural shells. The larger rectangular example opens to reveal a fabric-lined interior containing a selection of bead necklaces, while the smaller square box features a hinged lid and contains lace-making bobbins. Both pieces display pleasing folk-art character, with rich colour variation and attractive surface texture throughout. Showing age-related wear consistent with use, they offer strong decorative appeal and are well suited to collectors of shellwork, sewing antiques, or coastal decorative arts.
