DESCRIPTION |
English solid sterling silver trinket box with a hinged silver mounted tortoise shell lid inset with the insignia of the Royal Engineers and the original interior. I have left this item in the
condition that I found it. I think food use items should be clean and polished, antiques such as this can be just as happy left as they are. |
