Edward and Edwin Jennings established the firm in the late nineteenth century; its cast-metal household pieces brought sculptural ornament to ordinary objects. Here, a lively figural scene and bordered panels continue around the box, so the decoration has interest beyond the lid alone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe hinged top opens to a red fabric-lined compartment sized for jewelry or keepsakes. That lining remains a striking part of this example, even with the wear expected from use. The photographed maker and model mark connect this particular casket to the firm’s long tradition of decorative cast-metal work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaker\/Artist: Jennings Brothers, Bridgeport, Connecticut; model 1350\u003cbr\u003eYear Made: Circa 1900–1920\u003cbr\u003eMaterials: Cast metal with silver-colored finish, red fabric lining\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 5¼\" W × 3¼\" D × 2½\" H\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: The exterior shows darkening and surface wear.
