Antique .900 Fine Silver & Malachite French Engraved Pill Box 25.2g
Beautiful, petite, fine silver miniature lidded box with stunning malachite gem inlaid into the lid. The tiny little box was made in France judging by the tiny hallmark stamp around the early 1900's. Around the outside edge, top and bottom sections of the box it is finely engraved with decorative flourishes. These details just finish the box off beautifully. The inside of the box is stamped with F.K, faint French quality stamp, 900 and design number 44. The overall condition is excellent with just slight scratches commensurate with age. The lid closes firmly and there are two thumb buttons to one side to aid in opening the box. This antique treasure will be a delight for any collector to behold.
