The Monete collection was introduced by Bulgari in the mid-20th century, incorporating authentic ancient coins into modern luxury jewellery and objet dart designs to bridge classical history with contemporary craftsmanship.

High-end cigarette and cigar boxes from this period are typically crafted from solid sterling silver or high-grade silver plate, often featuring lined wooden interiors and inset antiqued elements such as ancient bronze or silver coins.

Authentic pieces generally feature official maker marks, purity stamps such as 925 for sterling silver, and serial numbers or signature engravings characteristic of the brands master silversmiths.

A designer silver box makes an excellent focal point when placed atop a stack of art books on a coffee table or used as a sophisticated desk accessory in a study.

Sterling silver should be cleaned periodically using a soft, non-abrasive microfibre cloth and a specialised silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage inset coins or patinated finishes.
