Antique 19th Century Bombe Louis XV Style Gilded Bronze Jewelry Box

This Stunning Antique 19th Century Bombe Louis XV Style Gilded Bronze Jewelry Box is an exquisite piece originating from France in the late 19th century. The intricate design features antique brass coloring with a Louis XV style design that exudes elegance and sophistication. Made of heavy gilded bronze, this original piece showcases pure craftsmanship, making it a valuable and timeless addition to any collection of antiques. The interior features a red felt (likely a replacement) and gold ribbon trim. The box includes a working key. I am not sure if it's original, it's slightly brighter in color but it does lock and open the box. Approximate dimensions of the piece: 

Height: 5.5"

Width: 7"

Depth: 5"

Weight of the box: 5lb 2.7 oz

Piece is in excellent condition considering its age. The bronze has a gorgeous patina; there are no cracks or chips. The hinges are holding up well; there is some rust on the lock plate (pictured); there are very minor scratches that are not noticeable unless closely looking for them. *Sold as is* please review all images carefully.
