AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful silver 1890 - 1910 Jugendstil/Art Nouveau pillbox with a decoration of water lilies and on the side ± clovers + hanging eye. The inside of the lid is lightly gold plated. Marked: German crescent moon + imperial crown, 800 and master mark. The water lily symbolizes: purity, enlightenment, inner peace and transformation. Because the flower closes at night and during the day opens its petals toward the sun, it also represents spiritual awakening, balance and a renewed beginning. Clovers: The clover is a universal symbol of luck, prosperity and protection. The spiritual meaning of the clover is deeply rooted in nature and also represents inner balance, inner peace and the four elements of nature.
