Vintage Italian inlaid marquetry wood box, commonly referred to as a Sorrento ware box, as many of these types of items were made in Sorrento, Italy in the mid to late 20th century. The ornate design is created using a technique called marquetry, which involves cutting and assembling thin pieces of different colored woods to form an intricate pattern, in this case, a floral and bird motif. This would be perfect on a vanity or dresser as a jewelry or trinket box. Stamped "Made in Italy" on the inside. The box is in great shape structurally, but the wood has crackled a bit on the top of the box from age.
