Description

A delicate yet delightful object, this small silver box is as much a jewel in its own right as it is a piece for storage. Utilising the filigree technique whereby the silver is worked with small beads and twisted wire, the walls of this box are made with ornate floral patterns in this method, which arc and curve out towards the base, and which sit upon four small similarly designed feet. Opening like a chest, the structure is made of silver bands which encompass the rich decorative panels; it is a wonderful and desirable miniature masterpiece.
