About This Piece

A French gilt bronze dresser box or jewelry casket from the late 19th century, in the Palais Royal tradition. Beautifully embellished with rope trim around the edges of the lid, four applied bellflower embellishments, and acanthus leaf decoration around the serpentine-shaped body. The lid is decorated with a hand-painted miniature portrait of a French aristocrat — most likely Marie Antoinette — hand signed and under glass. Lined in velvet.

During the 19th century, boxes such as this were sold in the Palais Royal shops of Paris as souvenirs of the Grand Tour — a tradition that makes this piece both a decorative object and a piece of cultural history.

Fantastic soap for the dermatitis and eczema prone
You guyyyyysss, my hands have no dry, itchy spots right now. None. This is remarkable because before now I have for years had issues with eczema/contact dermatitis patches that have at times (aka: most times) been pretty unbearable. To say that I’m overjoyed to have found a natural soap that truly works for me is an understatement. When you use this, you can feel that it’s moisturizing your skin. It’s fantastic. If you haven’t tried it, do yourself a favor and get yourself a bar. I’m wondering now if I can use it on my entire body and to wash my hair. That’s probably a little overboard, but it’s that good and now that I’ve used it I suspect all my skin problems are contact dermatitis that could be solved by the right soap/shampoo.

Best I’ve found yet for facial psoriasis
Anyone who has facial psoriasis will tell you there are not a lot of products that you can put on your face without irritation or flareups. This soap is just what I needed. There are no irritating chemicals or perfumes in this soap. I have read other reviews that the soap does not last very long but there is a way to use it to make it last. First, I wet my face and then I wet my fingertips and rub my finger tips across the dry bar of soap and then lightly rub my face with my fingertips softening the plaques and then lightly wash with a soft cotton washcloth. It is not really moisturizing but not over drying either. I follow up with an organic vegetable-based glycerin oil to moisturize. This is the best product I have found yet.
