A small wooden watercolor box from the PG Lambertye company, founded in 1788, a historic supplier of art supplies . This compact box, patinated by time and use, still contains several partially used watercolor pans , stored in their original compartment, as well as a very expressive metal mixing mirror bearing the artist's handprints. The natural marquetry of the wood, the brass lock, and the gilt label with its academic iconography lend this object an absolute charm, somewhere between a studio tool and a relic of inspiration. A truly beautiful piece for lovers of fine art, the history of painting, or the decoration of an artist's study.
