Antique oval 800 silver box, German-made, dating from the early 20th century. The lid features a richly embossed romantic scene: a female figure with a child surrounded by leaves, all framed by a braided perimeter frame.
The interior features original gilding (vermeil) on both the back and the reverse of the lid, where the scene is engraved in negative, a typical high-quality technique for vanity boxes. The sides are decorated with interlaced geometric openwork and embossed floral motifs.
Decorative object of great historical and collectible value.
