Georgian tortoise shell trinket box with gilt Sterling silver fittings

Georgian tortoise shell trinket box with gilt Sterling silver fittings. This lovely tortoise shell trinket box dates to between 1801 and 1822. It is manufactured from tortoise shell, and has 2 hinges, 4 corners, a lock and latch manufactured from gilt Sterling silver. These fittings are hallmarked IR (John Reily mark for between 1801-1822), lion passant (Sterling silver) and George's head (duty mark). I suspect that the box may have come over with the 1820 Settlers. It measures 18cm x 14cm x 6cm. The box is structurally solid, but has some damage to the tortoise shell in some places as can be expected after 200 years. Great buy.
