AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant English circular box made of solid 925 sterling silver, with a lid decorated in deep blue enamel and stylized heraldic-inspired motifs. This type of box was traditionally used as a pill box, cosmetic powders, or for small personal items.

The piece presents clearly visible British contrasts:
• Anchor — Birmingham (England)
• León passant — Sterling Silver 925
• Letter “t” — Year 1918
• LE — Manufacturer’s Mark

These contrasts certify the English origin and the authenticity of the piece.
