Antique Victorian Art Glass Pocket Watch Display Vitrine Box Beveled Door Ormolu

Antique Victorian art glass and ormolu pocket watch holder display vitrine. Lovely hand blown glass in a beautiful blue color and unique form with ormolu mounts. The hinged front door consists of a clear glass panel with a thick beveled edge, mounted in a prong setting and S-shaped clasp. Topped with a decorative finial, possible ginkgo leaves. Opening to a circular surround with hook to suspend a pocket watch, photo locket or miniature portrait.

Measures 4 3/8" tall x 2 1/2" wide x 2 1/8 deep. The circular surround for the pocket watch measures 1 1/2 diameter.

In overall good antique condition with general wear commensurate with age and use, I do not see any chips or cracks. It does not sit well on a table and likely had a stand on the base.
