It has a rectangular shape with chamfered corners and a lid ornamented with a gallant scene of two figures seated in a wooded landscape. The composition is framed by an oval medallion with a beaded border, flanked by two small rosettes and surrounded by a border of vegetal and floral motifs. The contrast between the smooth surfaces and the reliefs accentuates the depth of the scene. The underside is plain, and the number \"13551\" is engraved on the edge of the lid. It retains hallmarks, including a mark whose reading and emblem correspond to those used by Tétard Frères.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe firm Tétard Frères was active in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century and is known for its production of silverware and goldsmith objects. Its maker's mark, registered in 1903, places this piece within French production of the first decades of the 20th century, provided its identification is confirmed. The decoration recovers the 18th-century rococo taste through gallant scenes, floral motifs, and courtly-style compositions, reinterpreted in contemporary silverware. Due to its small dimensions, it is a pocket box intended for storing small personal items, compatible with use as a snuffbox or tobacco box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Neo-rococo, Louis XV inspiration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDecoration\/Motif: Gallant scene with two figures in a landscape, pearled oval medallion, rosettes, and floral and vegetal border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePeriod\/Date: ca. 1903–1930\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: France, Paris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTested: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Tested silver; exact purity not determined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHallmarks\/Stamps: Maker's mark attributed to Tétard Frères (\"T Fres\" and Huguenot emblem) and Minerva.
