Description from the seller

Vintage wooden jewelry box with a 925 sterling silver plaque

Elegant vintage jewelry box made of wood, with a lid decorated by a relief-worked 925 silver plaque.

The top features a perimeter frame with a torchon motif and a central oval inset surrounded by a small bead decoration. The silver surface has a slightly waved finish, capable of creating interesting light reflections.

On the edge of the plaque you can see the silver hallmarks, including the 925 mark, as well as additional maker marks.

The interior is lined with soft brown velvet-like material and includes a section prepared for small jewelry, rings, and accessories.

Dimensions: approximately H 5 × L 15 × D 12 cm
Weight: approximately 300 g

Vintage condition with normal signs of wear typical of time and use. The silver shows light surface variations and patina consistent with age; the wood retains a good overall presence. The patina has not been removed nor aggressively polished, in order to preserve the natural signs of time; any cleaning or polishing is left to the buyer’s discretion.
