FAQs

Patch boxes became popular during the Georgian era as small, portable containers used by women to store cosmetic patches, which were fashionably worn on the face to conceal blemishes or display social status.

These boxes were typically forged from silver, base metal alloys, or steel, and frequently inset with ceramic medallions, most notably jasperware produced by factories like Wedgwood and Adams.

Authentic pieces often feature period hallmarks or makers marks on the metalwork, alongside finely detailed, high-relief classical sprigged figures on the ceramic ceramic inserts typical of 18th-century pottery techniques.

This small collectible can be displayed atop a stack of vintage books on a coffee table or inside a glass-fronted cabinet to add a touch of historical detail to a room.

Silver components should be cleaned gently with a specialised polishing cloth to avoid damaging the delicate ceramic inset, which requires only dry dusting with a soft brush.
