Judaica - antique dowry box for a Jewish bride, Middle East.
A dowry box for a bride, Syria or Turkey, first half of the 20th century.

The box came from a Syrian family that immigrated to Israel in the 40's and according to them their grandmother received it when she got married at the age of 15, the ethos was that the box was "full" with coins when it was given to her.
The box is in good condition with time wear and defects that do not detract from its beauty.
