This antique Edwardian calling card case dates from 1905 and belongs to the Edwardian period. Formed from sterling silver, it has a polished silver finish and a rectangular shape. The exterior displays dense repousse scrollwork framing a central relief scene of a hound pursuing a stag across a landscape, alongside a blank shield-shaped cartouche on the lid and a hinged lid visible at the side. The surface shows light reflections and detailed chased textures throughout the metalwork. Practical dimensions are 10 cm high, 7 cm wide, and 2 cm deep. Placed on an office desk, it holds visiting cards or small stationery items while adding a decorative element to the workspace.

FAQs

During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, visiting or calling card cases were used to store social cards presented when visiting acquaintances. These personal accessories reflected social standing and etiquette conventions of the era.

These cases were typically crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as repousse, die-stamping, and hand-chasing to create raised relief designs. A hinged lid at the top secured the cards inside.

Authentic British pieces bear hallmarks indicating the purity of the silver, the assay office mark, the date letter, and the makers mark. Edwardian items are stamped with date letters corresponding to the period between 1901 and 1910.

Small silver accessories can be displayed on a desk, bookshelf, or within a glass display cabinet alongside other antique metalwork. They also function well as decorative desktop holders for modern business cards.

Gently wipe the silver with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a specialised silver polish sparingly to prevent tarnish accumulation. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads that could wear down delicate relief details.
