Antique 'Cape Silver' Snuff Box
This fabulous, fine, solid silver snuff box from the early 1800's has a wonderful shape and has been beautifully made and decorated. Although there are no markings or factory stamps, unlike English or Continental silver, which is normally stamped, I'm of the opinion that this is a lovely, early Cape silver piece. The box has the name 'J. Thomson' engraved in the small oval cartouche on the lid, which is a very early Cape name. Other than some wear to the original interior gilding, it's in amazing condition and has been tested by my jeweller as sterling silver. It measures 7,3cm x 4,2cm x 2cm and weighs 51,8g.
