Handsome Earlyish 19th Century Marbled Mustard Paint Decorated Papier Mache Snuff Box painting of chair but I can just pictureOne of two lovely antique paint decorated, lacquered papier mache snuff boxes listed today, found together, both early 19th century I believe. This one decorated with marbled spattered mustard paint on both faces, to my eye very beautiful and satisfying. 2 5 8" d x 1 2" t. Very good antique condition, with snuff stains to the interior, which I like.
