Glorious English antique sterling silver snuff box by Joseph Willmore, hallmarked from Birmingham in 1838.
The all over decorations remains crisp and clear and the gilt interior remains intact all suggesting very little or no use and not overly handled and polished.
Perfect with only one thing to note on the gilt interior of the lid there are 2 small dimples, very very light and only seen when at the right angle with the light and not at all evident on the outside (very very minor).
Of excellent weight and measures 75x45x22mm.
