800 Silver Enamel Tobacco Box with Blue Floral Motif – 67.4 g – Mid 20th Century – Europe

An exceptionally elegant and finely handcrafted tobacco box in 800 silver, richly decorated with hand-painted enamel (champlevé) floral motifs.

Weighing 67.4 grams and measuring 6 cm in length, this exquisite piece reflects the refined artistry and superior craftsmanship of mid-20th-century silversmithing.

The lid is adorned with a vivid blue flower surrounded by green leaves, executed in vibrant enamel with remarkable color depth and precision. The soft gradient tones and the subtle shimmer of the enamel showcase the artisan’s mastery and artistic sensitivity.

The surface bears a gentle natural patina, enhancing the box’s authentic antique charm and emphasizing the noble texture of aged silver. The smooth form, well-balanced weight, and perfectly functioning hinge underline its high-quality craftsmanship.

This is not merely a tobacco box, but a collectible work of art — an exceptional example of European silver enamel design that combines aesthetic beauty with historical value. A true treasure for collectors, antique enthusiasts, and lovers of refined silverwork.
