This Edwardian trinket box pairs an embossed sterling silver pull-off lid with a cylindrical cranberry red glass base. The piece carries hallmarks for James Deakin & Sons with the Chester assay mark and date letter for 1902. Hand-painted gold scrollwork and polychrome enamel flower garlands wrap around the glass body, while the silver lid features dense repousse decoration and a blank central cartouche. The base measures a compact 7 cm in diameter and 6 cm in height. Placed on a bedroom dressing table or a bedside table, this lidded container provides a practical home for small jewellery items, rings or cotton pads.

Cranberry glass is a red-tinted glass produced by adding gold salts to molten glass, widely utilised during the Victorian and Edwardian eras for decorative tableware and dressing table accessories.

These items typically feature hand-blown or mould-blown coloured glass bodies, often detailed with hand-applied enamel, fitted with a hallmarked sterling silver cap created using repousse or die-stamping technique.

Authentic pieces feature full British hallmark impressions indicating the silver standard, town mark, maker mark, and date letter, alongside characteristic ground pontil marks or smooth bases on hand-crafted glass.

Display the pot on a tray atop a bedside table, dressing table, or bathroom vanity shelf alongside neutral marble or stone elements to highlight the red glass and silver finish.

Hand wash the glass body using warm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could affect hand-painted enamelling, and clean the silver lid gently with a soft cotton cloth and dedicated silver polish.
