Description
This lot features three distinct sterling silver boxes from the early 20th century, each showcasing unique craftsmanship. The largest box is a rectangular form with a hinged lid, featuring a pull tab on the front. Engraved with "STERLING" on the base and a crest, it exhibits a classic and functional design. The next box is a square-shaped hinged box, also crafted from sterling silver, with a simpler, yet elegant, polished finish and an engraved crest on the base. The smallest and most ornate box is rectangular with scalloped edges and a hinged lid, intricately decorated with repoussé work depicting figural scenes around the sides and top, along with a dedication engraved on the base "G.A. TO G.A. B.A.J.A. 22. FEB. 1901" and several hallmarks. These boxes likely served various purposes, from snuff boxes to card cases, and are fine examples of early 20th-century silver artistry.
