Relic box signed DRESSEN
A character piece with a brutalist and precious look. This patinated metal box takes the architectural form of a small house with a sloping roof. Its surface is richly adorned with repoussé and stud work, inlaid with glass cabochons in shades of gemstones (ruby red, emerald green, and opaline).
The opening reveals a luminous surprise: an interior fully lined with vibrant chartreuse green fabric, offering a striking contrast to the dark metallic exterior of the object. Stamped "DRESSEN", this singular item evokes both folk art and a mysterious reliquary.
Some missing stones, deficiencies in the casing, and a lock without a key.
