{"product_id":"hermes-gold-plated-porthole-box-with-glass-front","title":"Hermes Brass Porthole Box with Glass Front","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully unexpected object from Hermes, this box takes the form of a genuine working porthole, complete with a wing nut screw mechanism that opens and closes the round window just as it would on a ship. Crafted from heavy gauge gold plated brass, the piece has real substance in hand, with a thick base that grounds the whole object and gives it presence on a shelf or console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe porthole itself is finished with glass, so whatever is stored inside remains visible even when the box is closed, part display case, part keepsake box. Turn the wing nut and the round window swings open on its hinge, revealing the interior and making the piece as satisfying to interact with as it is to look at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring 6\" x 2\", the box is substantial enough to serve as a genuine focal point rather than a small accent. Its nautical form makes it a natural fit for a seaside home, a boat, or simply anyone drawn to Hermes's more playful, sculptural decorative objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA decadent and exceptionally rare find, this porthole box is unlike almost anything else Hermes produced in this category.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hermes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50141635248266,"sku":null,"price":3450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/1247\/6810\/files\/Hermes_Brass_Porthole_Box_with_Glass_Front_2.jpg?v=1790376930","url":"https:\/\/collectorsgene.com\/products\/hermes-gold-plated-porthole-box-with-glass-front","provider":"Collectors Gene","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
