A quite magnificent 19th Century Scottish snuff box with a Scottish Cairgorm stone set to centre of lid flanked by an oval pierced work silver border, The silver part is unmarked but tests as silver and it was quite common for small pieces of silver not to be marked.
In our opinion it will probably be a Provincial piece made probably in the North of Scotland, possibly Inverness but obviously there is nothing to prove this and it is merely our thoughts.
It measures 98x64x22mm and is in perfect condition with no defects.
