Italian hand-carved vintage alabaster keepsake box in nectarine, circa 1970s.

Renowned for its fine grain and luminous quality, Italian alabaster has been prized since the Renaissance for crafting sculptural works, decorative objects, and religious altarpieces. Generations later, family-owned businesses continue to mine the rare stone from the hills of Tuscany.

Adorned with hand-painted cherry blossoms, referencing the EUR Lake Park in Rome.
