Item Details
This charming late Victorian stamp box is set with wonderfully translucent agates on a silver plated stand.
It measures 2 and 3/16” (5.5cms) by 1¼” (3.2cms). It is 7/8” (2.2cms) tall and weighs 49.3 grams.
The lid and base are inlaid with the most beautiful shades of burnt orange and white striations, wonderfully translucent when held to the light.
The box opens via tabs at the front. Inside there are two compartments. It closes loosely but that is fine if it sits on a desk or dressing table. It has four splayed out decorative feet.
It was obviously found in a state that required cleaning. There are traces of the paste which was used. It could easily be removed with some perseverance if required. There are no chips or cracks in the agate so it is in fine antique condition.
This lovely little box was originally used for stamps. However it could have multiple uses for the storage of small items such as jewellery. It will arrive carefully protected in a gift box.
