Unusual Victorian Solid Silver Vesta Case 1878

19th century
Description

This unusual VICTORIAN SOLID SILVER VESTA CASE was made by George Unite in 1878.

Of oblong form and with an all over engine turned design, this lovely Vesta Case has a sprung flip-top lid operated by a small

button on the side - a very unusual feature and sign of real quality.

The hinge is strong, the lid lies flush with the lip of the case when closed, the striking plate is in good order and there is a shield-shaped blank cartouche to the front.

Despite being almost 140 years old there is very little sign of wear and this superb piece would add to any collection or make a lovely gift.
