Can one have too many nice boxes—of varying sizes and shapes—positioned around the house, each ready to hide, hold or organize other possessions? A stack of varied and handsome antique boxes never fails to make an impression. This Nineteenth Century mahogany box (c. 1860-1880's) is punctuated with crisp bands of inlaid wooden marquetry. It's lined with green velvet, making it a lovely place to keep one's cufflinks, pearls, or desk-top necessities. And it would be a terrific (and protective) presentation box for a special wristwatch.
