This early 18th Century Queen Anne silver patch box takes a circular form with a pull-off lid and a low relief embossed profile portrait of the monarch accompanied by the letters Q and A. Forged in sterling silver with a reflective silver colour and finish, the piece displays small blemishes to the base and sides alongside a maker's mark only from Thomas Keddar. The compact container measures 1 cm high, 2.2 cm wide, and 2.2 cm deep. Suitable for display within an English Country House interior scheme, the small box sits neatly upon a sideboard top as a collector's piece or cabinet display item. The good condition includes no splits or holes while retaining surface wear commensurate with age and long-term use.

FAQs

In the 17th and 18th centuries, patch boxes held small fabric or leather beauty patches used to conceal skin blemishes or enhance complexions.

These compact containers were typically crafted from sterling silver, gold, tortoiseshell, or enamel, often featuring embossed relief decoration on the lid.

Authentic Queen Anne silver dates from 1702 to 1714, often stamped with Britannia standard hallmarks or makers marks alongside period-specific embossed monarch portraits.

A small silver patch box can be displayed atop a vanity tray, styled within a glass tabletop cabinet, or arranged beside leather-bound books.

Dust gently with a microfibre cloth and polish sparingly using a dedicated silver cloth to preserve raised surface details without causing abrasive wear.
