Description: Early 19th Century Papier-Mâché Snuff Box with Silver Inlay, c.1820
A small and decorative early 19th-century snuff box in lacquered papier-mâché, the shaped lid finely inlaid with silver scrollwork and quatrefoil corner motifs.
The surface retains a rich mottled red and black lacquer, evocative of tortoiseshell.
Original internal hinge in working order — the lid closes firmly and flush. Some age-related surface cracking and small imperfections, but structurally sound and visually attractive.
Measures: 6.5 cm wide x 3.5 cm deep x 3 cm high.
Condition: Used
Delivery option: Collection & Delivery
