A wonderdul French antique biscuit box, from the late 19th century. It features a beautiful Art Nouveau decor of a woman with a butterfly. The large lided box has a gorgeous shape. There is the inscription "Biscuits Olibet". The Olibet Biscuits company was created in the mid 19th century on Bordeaux (France). "During France’s 40-year Belle Epoque, which spanned the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Olibet capitalised on the country’s rapid urbanisation and a rising standard of living among the population to market its products to a growing public." This box is an example of the creativity of this French biscuits company.
Please take a close look at the photos, they are an integral part of the description. Good antique condition with some signs of ages.
