Antique 1918 Sterling Silver Jewellery Box

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Beeches Vintage
Description

Here we have a beautiful Antique Silver Jewellery Box from the early 1900s. It would be perfect for storing rings, earrings or other smaller jewellery items.

It comes in a gift bag and would be a great present.

It was made by Hemming and Walton and it was Hallmarked in Birmingham in 1918. The Hallmarks are on the base of the box.

The box is a larger size and has four elegant feet. It has shiny Silver sides and CHP elaborately engraved in the centre of the lid. The hinge works well and the lid lifts to show a blue material interior and a gilded inside of the lid.

The Silver is shiny with a little tarnish. The Silver on the lid has some scratches in places and a couple of tiny dints which aren’t really visible. The lid is a little wavy in shape instead of being flat so it doesn’t sit completely flush with the base on one side. The material interior has wear with the blue rope edging detached in some places.

It is a beautiful box and would stand out very well on a dressing table or shelf.

It weighs 205g.

It measures 13.1cm by 7.9cm (5 1/8 inches by 3 1/8 inches). The height is 6cm (2 3/8 inches).

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

During the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, sterling silver jewellery boxes and caskets became popular accessories for dressing tables. Typically commissioned as milestone gifts, they served both practical storage functions and as decorative status symbols displaying high craftsmanship.

These boxes were constructed from sterling silver, hallmarked to guarantee a purity of 925 parts per thousand. Craftspeople utilized techniques such as hand-engraving for monograms, sand-casting for intricate cabriole legs, and precision-fitted hinges to secure the lid.

Authentic British silver items feature a complete set of hallmarks: a lion passant for sterling quality, an assay office symbol, a specific date letter, and a registered makers mark. Examining these stamped hallmarks under magnification provides verification of age, material, and origin.

A silver trinket casket functions as a refined accent piece on a bedside table, dressing vanity, or bathroom tray. Combining silver objects with modern marble, polished wood, or glass surfaces creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and minimalist modern decor.

Maintain sterling silver by dusting regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and applying a specialized silver polish occasionally to remove oxidisation. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or submersion in water, especially if the interior features fabric lining.
