How do I date an antique silver box?

Dating relies upon the hallmarks stamped directly into the silver, which denote the specific assay office and year of production. Stylistic cues from the Victorian, Edwardian, and George V periods also help determine the era of manufacture.

What are these caskets lined with?

Interiors are commonly fitted with velvet to provide a soft resting surface for rings and delicate items. This material prevents metal-on-metal contact between the stored jewellery and the silver housing.

Where were these boxes made?

Many examples originate from English workshops, frequently bearing hallmarks from Birmingham assay offices. Other pieces reflect continental origins from the nineteenth century.
