Nathaniel Mills – Fine Victorian, silver snuff box - Birmingham, 1843 66.5g, 68x43x14mm This is a superb example of the work of the pre-eminent decorative silversmith of his day. The serpentine-edged box is decorated throughout - top, bottom and sides - with fine engraved chequered cross-hatching. The interior is gilded and has good clear hallmarks to top and bottom. The snuff box has a presentation inscription to the cover: " Presented to Mr Peter Gillies by a few of the E.C.Y.F. Society in token of their esteem for him as President November 1858" My poor photographs don't do it justice.

Superb for its age - no damage or material signs of wear, other than surface scratching to the interior gilding.
I trade in small silver, jewellery and objets d'art. I sell primarily at antiques fairs and in cabinets in Christique Antique Centre in Dorking. I try to find unusual and interesting stock and like to keep turning it over, so I can buy more. Postage and packing are free within the UK - unless explicitly stated otherwise. All fine jewellery will be supplied with a box. If the box/case is described in the text, it will be the one photographed, but may not be if it is not mentioned explicitly. I keep hardly any stock at home, if you want to buy something and need it urgently, I will usually do it the next day, but it may take me some time to respond if you need extra photographs and/or details about the piece that I do not have to hand, as I typically visit the antiques centre just once a week. If you don't see what you're looking for - feel free to send an enquiry via the site. I have only been able to list a portion of my stock.

I will always mention anything that materially affects the aesthetic or function of a piece, but will not attempt to describe what I consider to be normal for age and use. Please use the photographs as well as you can and I’m always happy to answer specific questions.
