AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a very beautiful antique snuff box. It is made of burr walnut wood. The box also has a small mother-of-pearl ornament with a black border (ebony?) on the front of the lid. It looks a bit like an eye! The dimensions are about 7 cm wide, 4 cm high, and 1.3 cm deep.

The lid of the box is hinged and has a narrow, raised edge that allows the user to open the box. We think this piece dates from the Georgian period, circa 1714–1830. Charming antique snuff box, crafted from beautifully worked wood. The box has a unique appearance and shows signs of aging, which adds to its character. Perfect for collectors of antique objects or as a decorative item.
