AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A very well-preserved silver box made of 830/1000 silver, bearing the manufacturer's mark (GK) of the German silver-tradition manufactory Gottlieb Kurz from Schwäbisch Gmünd. Likely production year between 1900 and 1930.
The box measures approximately 8 cm W x 9 cm L x 2.5 cm H, with an inner wooden lining, gross weight approximately 121 grams.
Assay marks (stamp): Crescent, Crown, Maker's mark, Model number
A little care and attention will let the silver box shine again.
