1920s French Art Nouveau Bronze Hinged Apple Trinket Box on Twig and Leaves

Antique hinged bronze painted and patinated apple on a twig with leaves, to keep or collect your little trinkets in.
This used to be called a bed-apple, for putting your jewellery in on your nightstand before going to bed. But evidently they also where often used as ashtray.
The colour of this apple is great, the time patine created a deep bronze apple on elegant detailed gold painted leaves.
This would look great in a collection, as you can see I have more of them.
But it looks great on its own on your coffee table as well.
I think every stack of coffee table books should have a grounding piece on top.
And of course this would be a great gift.
