Queen Anne or George I Silver Snuff Box C1710-1725

18th century

Sold by Highland Antiques Ltd

Description

A very rare shell shaped unmarked silver snuffbox. Probably made between 1710 and 1725. The shape and style are of this period. For a similar box see "British Silver Boxes, The Lion Collection" by John Culme. Its on page 122 box number 120, sold at auction for £1100 plus commission. My box though unmarked is remarkably similar and in very good used condition. There are signs of part gilding on the outside and almost full gilding on the inside. It has engraved cherubs on the inside lid. A beautiful and very collectible early English snuff box.

WEIGHT; 50 grams or 1.6 ozst approx.

Sustainable Choice

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.
