Antique French Portrait Miniature Mount Snuff Box, c.1750s, Beautiful Woman navette selling at auction houses inIn her powdered wig, pearl combs holding the sides and ringlets dropping to the back, this young beauty would have lived in mid late 1700s. Her expressive blue eyes and soulful seductive look adds to the story of her state of dress (or undress). Yes, she's a "naughty", with her one breast peeking above her very informal gown.
