French Antique Silver Pill Box
$195
Antique and Vintage Treasures - from Great Britain, France and Continental Europe
This delightful, antique French pill box bears the boar’s head hallmark for 800-900 silver quality. It features a design of acanthus leaves and fleur de lis. I am dating it to circa 1890-1900.
The box measures 1and 3/4” (4.4cms). It is 13/16”(2cms) tall and weighs 18.8 grams.
The front has an exquisite raised design around an oval which carries a discreet monogram. The surround is beaded and there is a fleur de lis on either side. Around this are the swirling acanthus leaves with tiny fleur de lis along the scalloped edge.
It opens easily from the front on its hinge. The interior is beautifully gilded. On the interior of the lid is the boar’s head. The lid closes firmly.
The side is decorated with diagonal lines and delicate beading. The reverse is plain silver.
In excellent antique condition, this charming box will arrive in a gift box.
