Description from the seller
Old Victorian-style box, made of silver-plated bronze, dating from the 19th century, with characteristic ornamental design of the period. Cylindrical in shape, the piece features decorative engravings on the body and lid, with floral, geometric, and frieze motifs that reflect the period's appreciation for detail and symmetry in decorative arts.
The lid, with a central turned handle, fits onto the body through a molded edge, and the set rests on a circular tray with a decorated border and small feet, which elevate the piece and give it presence. The silver finish shows a natural patina that enhances the reliefs and adds authenticity.
This type of box could have been used as a sugar bowl, a serving container, or a vanity box, representing the functional refinement of Victorian domestic furniture. Ideal for collectors of English silverware, historical utility objects, or 19th-century style decor.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
