Silver & Velvet Heart Trinket Box Birmingham 1903

An unusual Edwardian trinket box. Beautifully made from silver and blue velvet, the box comes in the shape of a perfect heart. The side of the box forms the heart shape, is made from solid silver and clear hallmarks are visible for the Birmingham Assay Office with a date mark for 1903. The Lion Passant indicating sterling silver can also be seen along with the maker's marks for the renowned silversmiths: Levi & Salaman. The base of the box and the lid are covered in a lovely navy blue velvet material and the top is padded. The lid is hinged and opens and closes perfectly. The interior is a lovely navy blue satin.

The box is a good size for holding precious trinkets! and rare to find one made with silver and velvet!

 

Condition: This box is in great antique condition and the velvet is not marked or stained (there is a very slight fade to the very edges of the material, and a very slight wear at the back of the box just below the hinge, not noticeable unless examined very closely, that I mention for accuracy and is commensurate with age and does not detract from the item). The satin on the inside base of the box is very slightly marked.
