A fine example of a Silver Plated Biscuit Box.
Manufactured by Fenton Bros, the design Lozenge mark on the base accurately dates this box at 23 March 1880.
The condition is amazing, given it''s age. Overall classically rectangular, rather than the scalloped edge featured by many Victorian biscuit boxes, it is plain with a decorative empty cartouche on both sides. The hinges work well. Inside it is not gilded and the silver plate is in excellent condition. The splayed feet end on balls which sit evenly on the surface.
Dimensions:
Height: 22cm
Width: 19cm
Depth: 15.5cm to the splayed feet.
