AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sterling silver 925 box with natural amethyst – second half of the 20th century
Elegant box made of 925 sterling silver, with a refined lobed contour design and crowned by a large natural amethyst cabochon, intensely violet with the typical veins and transparencies of this gem.
The body decoration features fine engravings and oxidized details that highlight the artisanal work of the silver. The interior, with clean lines and a polished finish, makes the piece a stylish case for storing small jewels, rings, mementos, or other personal objects.
The box bears a maker’s mark stamped on its interior. Due to the stamp’s limited definition, it has not been possible to identify the workshop or manufacturer with certainty. The silver has been tested and verified by professional jewelers using an acid test, confirming that this is 925 sterling silver.
The combination of solid silver and the large natural amethyst gives this box an elegant presence and a notable appeal for collectors of silver items and decorative jewelry pieces.
Characteristics:
• Material: 925 sterling silver
• Stone: Natural amethyst (cabochon)
• Weight: 49 g
• Measurements: 5 × 4.5 × 2 cm
• Era: second half of the 20th century
The piece remains in very good overall condition, with slight signs of use consistent with its age. The amethyst shows excellent natural color and brilliance.
