Description from the seller

W.J. Myatt & Co – sterling silver & glass, Birmingham 1914

An English toiletry container made in Birmingham in 1914 by W.J. Myatt & Co, a manufacturer specializing in small silver items.

The massive base is made of decoratively cut glass with a geometric, diamond pattern. The bottom is adorned with an impressive cut in the form of a multi-armed star. The whole is capped with a richly decorated lid made of solid sterling silver, 925 fineness, with a plant motif running along the edge.

The lid retains the complete set of British assay marks: the W.J.M & Co mark, the Birmingham anchor, the lion passant confirming sterling silver, and the date letter.

A small everyday object from over 110 years ago – originally intended for a dresser, to store trinkets, jewelry, or cosmetics.
