1901 British antique floral engraved sterling silver card case, 75g, boxed, Lines, Bunn & Mason
SKU: 202503215140
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 work was made by Lines, Bunn & Mason in Birmingham, England in 1901.
This unique design features a tree bark-like pattern decorated with flowers and leaves.
The cartouche on the front is engraved with the initials of the first owner, "EW", and the date, "January 11, 1905", which is believed to be the date it was gifted.
It is large enough to fit your current business cards without any problems and can hold more than 15 business cards.
It is unclear if it is original, but it comes in a luxurious box with leather exterior and velour interior.
We hope that this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one!
