Rare Edwardian Silver Double Stamp Case

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Woodbridge Antiques

A very rare Edwardian silver double Stamp Case. This rectangular case is beautifully decorated with an exceptionally pretty floral design incorporating a circular empty cartouch in one corner. The back of the case is a plain polished silver. The case opens in an unusual way: a green carbouchon gem acts as a slide button and enables the base which holds the stamps to slide out (there are two separate compartments). On the back are the hallmarks for the Birmingham Assay office with a date mark for 1906 along with the maker''s mark: Ahronsberg Brothers.
