Impressive round crystal and dore pin cushion with box/vitrine featuring gilt painted scenes on all sides.
Wreaths, flowing flowers, and arrow quivers add visual interest.

Lovely gilt painted work that includes shields with arrows and musical instruments surrounded by floral work. The top is covered in a deep green velvet which could be used as a pin cushion or for displaying favorite pins/brooches.

The crystal is unmarked, but certainly of fine quality with cut work on the bottom which plays with the light coming through.
