Antique German Heavy Brass Ormolu Porcelain Portrait Dresser Can Box Glass inser

  

I believe this to be 1900's or earlier. This ornate brass dresser box is encasing a cut glass liner.

The hinged lid has a beveled mirror inside. The top has a porcelain painted portrait encircled in mother of pearl and captured in brass ormolu, it is artist signed. It measures 2.75 tall. There is a tight crack in the MOP through the edge of the portrait. But the top is still tight and complete. The hinge and closure work well. The piece is not marked.
