Chrysanthemum biscuit tin Tokyo Legras

Art Nouveau biscuit bucket in enamelled glass, known as the "Chrysanthemums Tokyo" model, attributed to the Legras establishments, circa 1900. A beautiful piece in transparent glass with an ovoid shape, adorned with a rich naturalistic decoration of polychrome enamelled chrysanthemums in red-brown, pink, ivory, and yellow tones, accompanied by delicate foliage highlighted in gold. This decoration is well-known and referenced among Legras productions from the Art Nouveau period. The bucket retains its original metal mount, its domed lid, and its twisted handle, all showing an authentic patina of time. The glass is in very good condition, with no chips or cracks. The enamelling is still very well preserved. The metal shows oxidation and a patina consistent with the age of the piece. Note: one side attachment of the handle is broken, restoration possible; sold as is and visible in the photographs. Dimensions: H. 18 cm – Ø 12 cm.
