Regency Box, Small

A composed cabinet curiosity in polished brass, glass, and alabaster, the small Regency Box from John Richard carries the measured grandeur its name implies — crystalline surfaces catching light with the quiet authority of an object that has always belonged on a significant desk or dressing table. At five and a half inches in every direction, its cubic geometry is deliberate, the proportions neither modest nor presumptuous but exactly sufficient. Metal, stone, and crystal are held in elegant conversation, each material lending its own luminosity to the whole.
