SKU: 202410254748
We would like to introduce you to some antique British sterling silver containers.
This work was created by Howard James of Birmingham, England in 1890.
The inside is gold plated and it appears to be a snuff case.
It has a rounded palm-sized shape and the lid opens when you squeeze it.
It is decorated with a beautiful scroll pattern of plant leaves all over, and the lid is monogrammed with the first owner's initials.
There is little wear to the engraving and it is in very good condition.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
