Description

Pretty rounded lozenge shape South Staffordshire enamel snuff box with a lilac-blue ground and geometric pattern to the lid of diamonds in white, pale pink and lilac-blue. Additional decoration of raised white beaded borders, gilded dotted borders and painted dark green pattern to the centre and around the edge of the pink diamond.

It measures 5cm (2 1/2") long, 3cm (1 3/16") wide and 2cm (3/4") high. Condition is very good; there is a small patch of over-painting to the base (the enamel underneath seems fine and no signs of repair inside) and the brass mount has been reattached to the base. Light surface wear and just a few fine hairlines in the enamel on the base.

Date of Manufacture

The Fancy Fox has dated this piece to the 18th Century.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
