The outer bands are a strong bright blue with some of the inner bands in a lighter slightly turquoise blue, the combination reflecting light in contrasting ways. The box is gilt lined and the hinge and catch work perfectly. Boxes of this quality were often imported from the Continent, and assayed as sterling silver with the London date mark, as here.

George V silver and enamel pieces typically reflect early 20th-century design, combining traditional sterling silver smithing with vibrant coloured enamel work, often featuring geometric engine-turned guilloche patterns under translucent glazes.

These items are crafted from solid sterling silver with hinged or slip-on lids, decorated using vitreous enamel fused to the metal surface through high-temperature kilning.

Authenticity is verified by examining the hallmarks stamped on the silver, which include the makers mark, the lion passant for sterling silver, the town mark indicating the assay office, and a date letter corresponding to the specific year of production.

Small decorative silver containers can be placed on a bedside table, dressing table, or mantelpiece as a refined accent piece or used to hold small items.

Enamel is sensitive to impact and harsh chemicals, so items should be cleaned gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, avoiding abrasive silver polishes directly on the enamelled surfaces.
