Circa: 1900 Art Nouveau Period

Condition:
Overall Vey Good, there is two spots on side of lid that look to have been touched up at some point and a chip on the interior rim and exterior bottom (matching chip lines up) but only the bottom one shows when on display and has the gold painted over so it is not at all overly visible.
