Description from the seller

Miniature box / silver filigree trinket box – Portugal (attributed) – 20th century

Elegant miniature silver box made in delicate filigree technique, decorated with refined pierced work and geometric and vegetal ornamentation of great visual richness. The piece presents the form of a small traditional chest with a hinged lid and decorative spherical feet, showing meticulous artisan workmanship characteristic of Iberian goldsmithing.
