Artisan Antiques has dated this Antique Silver Etui to the 19th Century.
The entirety is parcel-gilt (areas of silver and gilt) and has been meticulously designed in a way that the gold highlights the acanthus scrolled motifs whilst the engine-turned background remains silver.
Pulling on both ends reveals the inner compartment, once again made with a high degree of care where the ends join perfectly and have a flush fit.
Overall, a splendid and exemplary piece demonstrating superb quality regardless of the object's size/utility - a true testament to the opulence and craftsmanship of the era. Perfect for the uncompromising collector or as an exquisite gift for someone special.
This piece is marked with French marks on the inner compartment under the lid.
