Description from the seller
Spanish silver box 915 – 1930s–40s of the 20th century
Elegant box made in Spanish silver of the standard 915/1000, datable to the 1930s–40s.
The presence of the five-pointed star contrast, corresponding to the first official hallmarks used in Spain after the reform of the thirties, allows attributing the piece to this period.
The lid is finely hand-engraved with a vegetal-inspired composition, formed by a central rosette surrounded by delicate scrolls and stylized leaves. The decoration continues on the sides, reflecting the excellent level of Spanish goldsmithing of the era.
Due to its format, this box was conceived to store pills, small jewelry, coins or personal memories, combining functionality and elegance.
Characteristics:
• Origin: Spain
• Era: 1930s–40s of the 20th century
• Material: 915/1000 silver
• Weight: 30 g
• Dimensions: 5 × 3.5 × 1.5 cm
It is in good condition, with natural patina and slight signs of use in keeping with its age.
An elegant piece of Spanish silversmithing from the first half of the 20th century, representative of the early years of the modern system of official hallmarks.
The photographs are part of the description and faithfully show the current state of conservation of the piece.
