1880 British antique sterling silver card case, 72g, Hilliard & Thomason, in excellent condition
SKU: 202409144711
We would like to introduce you to an antique British sterling silver card case.
This is a card case that would have been custom-made for an upper-class person at the time.
The surface decoration is so beautiful that no two pieces are alike.
This was made by Hilliard & Thomason , Birmingham, England in 1880.
Both sides are completely decorated with extremely intricate motifs, and the cartouche on one side features the initials of the first owner.
It is large enough to fit your current business cards without any problems and can hold more than 15 business cards.
It has very little sign of use and the engravings and markings are clear, and it is in fairly good condition.
We hope that this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one!
