Charming vintage Stratton trinket or pill box, Made in England, featuring a romantic hand-decorated enamel scene in a classic pastoral style.
The lid depicts a courting couple in a garden setting, framed by a gilt-tone metal body with a decorative star-patterned base.
The box opens on its original hinge.
A lovely decorative collectible from the golden age of English vanity accessories.
Important note:
The clasp does not close tightly and does not function properly. The lid will not stay firmly shut, so this piece is best suited for display, light trinkets, or collection purposes rather than secure storage.
