Gorgeous Victorian Period (c. 1877-1898).
Boxes are practical and functional. They hold jewelry, etc. But, as with all things Victorian, they didn't stop at functional. Victorian Boxes are things of beauty.
They are aesthetic masterpieces that blend the glimmer of beautiful art glass with the glint of brass. The ornate frames often bear fanciful figural flowers, cherubs or animals. The glass boxes displayed the height of the Victorian glassblowers' art.
