This refined round box of embossed silver is an outstanding example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, imported to France. The exterior of the box is finely decorated with a romantic scene in relief, depicting a lady holding a lyre amidst elegant scrolls and floral motifs characteristic of the Victorian ornamental style, still popular in the early years of the 20th century.
Marked with the prestigious swan hallmark. This hallmark, introduced in 1864, was applied to silver objects imported into France from countries without customs agreements, confirming their foreign origin and authenticity in the French market. It also bears the letters "JR," the signature of the silversmith who crafted it, adding historical value to this piece.
Perfect for collectors of antiques, silverware or jewelry, and for those looking to give a gift with a rich history and authenticity.

Things you should know

What you are buying (important)

We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.

If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
