VINTAGE 20thC ITALIAN PAIR OF SODALITE STONE BOXES
£1,995.00
Vintage 20th Century pair of Italian sodalite stone boxes. Mounted with a brass hinge and lined in black marble, the piece showcases the rich royal-blue tones and white veining characteristic of sodalite. Quarried in various parts of the world and favoured by Italian makers for decorative objects during the 20th century, sodalite is a tectosilicate mineral prized for its depth of colour and polished finish. Traditionally, it has been associated with clarity of thought and the organisation of the mind.
