AI-gegenereerde samenvatting
Beschrijving van de verkoper
A rare and highly decorative Scandinavian gentleman’s personal box dating to the late 19th century (circa 1870–1900).
The box is crafted from beautifully patinated hardwood and finished with solid sterling silver (925), confirmed by silver testing. The lid features a finely hand-cut silver pastoral scene depicting a cow, sheep and seated shepherd, complemented by a delicate mother-of-pearl inlay beneath the scene. The rounded silver end caps give the box an elegant and refined appearance.
Although the exact original purpose cannot be established with certainty, the size and construction suggest it was intended as a gentleman’s personal box, possibly for snuff or other small personal items. Such finely crafted examples are rarely encountered on today’s market.
Dimensions
* Length: 8.5 cm
* Width: 4.5 cm
* Height: 2 cm
Condition
Overall in good antique condition with an attractive age-related patina. The wood shows normal wear consistent with age. One corner has an old stable crack/repair, visible in the photographs. The silver decoration and mother-of-pearl inlay are intact and present well.
A rare collector’s object combining Scandinavian craftsmanship with sterling silver and natural materials, making it an elegant addition to any collection of antique decorative arts or gentlemen’s accessories.
