A truly magnificent English Victorian Jewelry box or safe made from silver plate and dating to around 1860.

This exquisite box is indeed a safe looking at the front of the box, you have to imagine that the top 5" is the actual antique jewellery box and bottom 4 1/2" is a solid weight, making this extraordinarily heavy hence not being able to just quickly be picked up and stolen.

The quality is exceptional with exquisite filigree work and a very British Lion's head to the back and front swing handles to either side (do not lift this with the handles - it is too heavy) the top is fitted with figural mounts to each corner featuring a lady's head.

The hefty lid is opened to reveal a heavy duty lock (the key requires a push right in and then turned to lock). The interior of the box has been professionally re-lined in black velvet creating a clean and very usable finish with a soft finish.

This is a rare find, something I have never come across before. The condition is quite wonderful with a superb polished antique patina with gold highlights to high points.

11" x 8" x 9 1/2" tall.
