Description
Item 4092. An AustroHungarian
Imperial Hapsburg ( Habsburg ) document box. Carved wood. Size: 17.75" wide x 14.25 x 4.25" deep and with the carved relief the box is 5.5" deep. Condition: there are multiple small losses including, I believe a cross atop the crown. If you see a red circle in the photos that is where there is a loss. I believe that the chain surrounding the carving is the Order of The Golden Fleece. The carved text on the front, I believe reads: "Corps of Engineers" or possibly " The Military Construction Administration" and is dated 1916.
A rare memento of Imperial Austria.
