About the Item

Austrian Jugendstil / Vienna Secession Brass Box in the Style of Karl Hagenauer 
Stamped Austria · c. 1900–1915.
 Pressed-brass box with a gently arched lid, finished in a warm antique bronze patina. The surface is fully worked in high-relief Secessionist ornament: a central heart lock plate with concentric spirals, radiating herringbone fields, studded borders, corner scrolls, and repeating triangles. The same vocabulary wraps the sides and lid so the box reads as a small piece of architecture rather than a plain container. Typical of Austrian export metalware from the years around the Vienna Secession—geometric, graphic, and tactile. Functional hinged lid with original key still in the lock. Useful as a jewelry or trinket box, or simply a decorative object on a shelf. Stamped Austria on the underside. Dimensions: 7 in. wide × 6 in. deep × 5 in. high. Wear consistent with age.
