This antique Arts and Crafts style silver biscuit box is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition.

The box has been professionally polished and is in presentation condition.

Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the box and part hallmarks to the rim of the cover are all very clear; the hallmarks are struck deeply due to the exceptional gauge of silver, except for the maker's mark which has been mis-struck.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this piece of vintage silverware.
