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, not new or freshly manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, small losses, or variations typical of the passage of time. These characteristics are common in pieces with history and are part of their condition.

We recommend that you review the photographs carefully, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm any details before purchasing, please write to us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken with artificial light, so the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is a deciding factor for you, we can send you additional photographs taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the true tone.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces have a patina as a natural consequence of the passage of time. We do not remove it, as it may have taken decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the character and appearance of the piece.

If you decide to clean or polish a piece, do so with caution and keeping the material in mind. Improper cleaning can alter its surface, patina, appearance, and in some cases, its value. If you need guidance on cleaning a specific material, contact us and we will help you.
