This round box from the "Ca d'Oro" model—whose name is borrowed from the famous Venetian palace—is a key piece in the collection: the domed lid is structured with a network of triangles and lozenges in deep black and pearly white enamel, the platinum partitions forming a strict geometric lattice, enhanced with gold trim and a gold knob. The cylindrical base, glazed in black with a fine crackle finish, is highlighted with a gold band. The interior is glazed in plain cream. The palette—black, white, gold, platinum—and the geometric vocabulary are in keeping with the Art Deco tradition, reinterpreted in a contemporary style.

The base bears the printed stamp "Faïenceries de Longwy depuis 1798 / Décorés à la main / Émaux de Longwy / France / Ca d'Oro réf. 684523" as well as the handwritten signature "Clotilde D.". This piece has an attribution mark,
