Description from the seller

Splendid Neapolitan sugar shaker, or, given its size and shape, a small sauce/legume tureen, in Art Deco style. It is made of solid silver, with 800 fineness and maker's marks on the back of the bottom of the sugar shaker and on the back of the lid. Key features:
Style: The style is Art Deco, characterized by clean, geometric lines typical of the 1920s.
Material: solid silver (800 fineness)
Function: Its size and the presence of a hinged lid with a faux hole may indicate that it was used as a sugar shaker, but similar shapes are also found for small tureens or warming dishes.
It could be used to serve sugar, sauces, small vegetables, or as a decorative centerpiece. Its value is mainly antique or functional, given its good condition and craftsmanship.
Dimensions are: weight 167 g, height 9.5 cm, and width and depth 14.5 cm.
The sugar shaker will be carefully packed, insured, and shipped with a tracking number.
