Description and Details

This English solid snuff box was made by silversmith Joseph Willmore in Birmingham during the Victorian era - 1837. Reflecting the pinnacle of industrial growth during the Victorian era, the construction quality and craftsmanship of the snuff-box does not shy away from plentiful ornamental features and a high-quality finish to the box.

The exterior is constructed from sterling silver and features multiple types of engine turned motifs on the lid, sides and base. The top has a high polish finish in addition to a rose-gold centrepiece that has not been monogrammed. In contrast to the silver appearance of the exterior, the interior is fully gilded and has a semi-reflective gold tone. The lid has a high relief thumb-piece with an acanthus motif design which has been hand chased

Upon holding the box, it has a sturdy and reassuring weight and the precise geometric dimensions of the box are apparent. Furthermore, the hinge and closure of the lid function flawlessly with a smooth closure. 

The box is fully hallmarked with the maker's mark "J.W", silver lion, Birmingham anchor, Victorian head and the date mark "O" for 1837.

A remarkable Victorian snuff box to add to a bespoke collection whether for personal use or display - an undoubtedly eye-catching piece.
