This oval sterling silver box is a true collector's item, not only for its delicate engraving and classic Art Nouveau elegance, but also for its significant historical value. Crafted from 925 sterling silver, it features exquisite plant decoration and embossed coats of arms both inside and out.

What makes this piece truly unique is its rarity: it was imported to London in the brief period between 1903 and 1904, as indicated by the sunburst hallmark and the "925" symbol. This symbol, combined with the classic hallmarks of the lion passant (guarantee of purity) and the leopard's head (London Hallmark Office), confirms its authenticity.

Signed by Barr, Moering & Co., a firm registered in 1892 and specializing in the import of decorative silverware from Germany, this piece represents a fusion of continental design and British certification. Ideal for lovers of history and English silverware.
