Condition

This antique silver jewellery box is a very good gauge of silver, fine quality and in excellent presentation condition.

The hinged cover to the box has subtly contorted and no longer sits flush when closed; this impressive box can be considered in excellent presentation condition, in keeping with age.

The engine turned and chased decoration is all very sharp.

Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the box and part hallmarks to the surface of the cover are all very clear.

Reflections in photography may detract from the true representation of this piece of antique silverware.
