Silver Arts and Crafts Box
This antique silver box exemplifies the Arts and Crafts movement, hand-hammered with a textured surface and a hinged opening revealing a lined interior. Hallmarked in London in 1916, this piece showcases the skilled craftsmanship of the period, with its organic form and attention to detail. The box’s rectangular shape and lidded design suggest it was intended for storing small valuables, letters, or keepsakes, and its substantial weight of 290g speaks to the quality of the silver used.
Condition and Collectibility
This silver box presents with the expected patina and wear consistent with its age, adding to its character and authenticity. While showing signs of previous use, the box remains structurally sound and the hallmarking is clear and legible. This piece would appeal to collectors of Arts and Crafts silver, vintage boxes, or those seeking a unique and beautifully made antique to add to their collection.
