Antique English Sterling Silver Jewelry Box in Form of Grand Piano

Antique English Sterling Silver Jewelry Box in Form of Grand Piano

A stunning English sterling silver jewelry box made by the well-known firm of William Comyns. A most unique piece, the jewelry box is in the shape of a grand piano decorated with the famous "Reynolds Angels" on the top and around the sides. William Comyns is an important silver firm founded in London in the year 1859. I have sold several Comyns jewelry boxes over the past year; each unique and unforgettable in design as this box.

The lid of the "piano" lifts to reveal a compartment for jewelry. The keyboard cover lifts to reveal a compartment for rings. Both are lined with the original velvet. A special box for gift giving.
