The pressed floral border on this box runs all four edges without a break — a detail that requires a proper die, not a cheap stamp.
A vintage silver-tone metal jewellery box with a hinged lid, cast in relief with a continuous floral and vine border framing a smooth central cartouche. The interior lid is lined with textured silver-tone metal repeating the exterior motif; the box interior is lined in deep purple velvet. The box sits on four small corner feet. No music box, no lock — just a clean snap closure.
Not magnetic, which rules out iron-based base metal. Likely a silver-plated or silver-tone alloy.
It will hold bracelets, watches, or a small collection of brooches laid flat. On a dressing table it reads ornamental as much as functional — the relief work catches light at an angle. Works alongside both Victorian and mid-century pieces; the purple interior gives it a slight richness without being fussy.
