A charming late 19th to early 20th-century Italian toleware trinket box, featuring a beautifully hand-painted hunting motif on an elegant ivory-toned lacquered surface. The lid showcases an intricately rendered powder flask, hunting horn, and crossed rifle or staff, surrounded by delicate foliage, a classic nod to the Victorian and Edwardian era’s fascination with nature and sporting themes. The sides are adorned with a gilded leafy garland, enhancing its refined decorative appeal.

The oval shape and aged patina add to its timeless character, while the engraved “ITALY / PA” mark on the underside confirms its European origin. Likely crafted between 1890 and 1920, this box embodies the period’s exquisite hand-painted metalwork, reminiscent of French and Italian country elegance.

A sophisticated and storied piece, perfect for collectors of antique toleware, European decorative arts, or sporting memorabilia.
