Italian Hollywood Regency Box and Matching Lighter

Italy, 1970s. The Hollywood Regency style then triumphed in the most refined interiors, consistently pairing gilt brass with precious materials such as faux tortoiseshell lacquer. This set is a complete demonstration of it: a box and its matching lighter.The box, in brown faux tortoiseshell lacquer, closes beneath a solid brass frame; once open, its lid folds back like the pages of a book. The lighter, in polished brass, echoes the same interplay of materials on its upper section, with a classic flint mechanism concealed within a slim cube-shaped case.Very good condition: the brass has taken on a warm patina, with a few light scratches visible on the underside of the box, nothing serious. An exceptional set, complete and matching.At 18 cm long by 11 cm wide and 6 cm high, this box paired with its lighter makes for an elegant desk set, somewhere between function and sculpture. A piece signed by the golden age of Italian decorative design.
