1895 British antique double door sterling silver card case 101g Joseph Gloster
SKU: 202405044288
We would like to introduce you to an antique British sterling silver card case.
This is a card case that would have been custom-made for an upper-class person at the time.
The surface decoration is so beautiful that no two pieces are alike.
This is a work by Joseph Gloster of Birmingham, England, from 1895.
Both sides are decorated with scrolls, flowers and leaves.
The cartouche is engraved with a monogram that is believed to be the initials of the first owner.
It is a type that holds cards in place with an unusual clip and has a large capacity that can hold more than 40 business cards.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
