Rare Georgian Shagreen Sterling Silver Spectacles Glasses Case C1800 Portsmouth

18th century
Description

A rare English Georgian antique sterling silver and shagreen spectacles or glasses case. The silver is unmarked but tests as high grade silver. I would date it to c1800. It has been superbly made and still has its original retail label inside the lid relating to an Opticians to the King at the High St Portsmouth. It is in super condition being free from dings splits and repairs. It measures over 5 inches (13.2cm) tall by 1.75 inches (4.4cm) across by almost 1 inch (2cm) wide and weighs 46 grams. A superbly designed rare piece.

Declaration

The Silver Squirrel has dated this piece to the Georgian era.
