About the Item

It was a great pleasure to find this rare Arts & Crafts pewter and copper box. The copper applications are decorated with green and blue glas cabochons. The wooden carcass is covered entirely with pewter, embossed with quatrefoils. The edges of the casket are enhanced with ornamental and plain rivets, arranged to form a rhythmic pattern. The embossed copper banding is accentuated with round and square mottled blue and green glass cabochons. The box has retained it's original little key. The box was probably intended to keep precious letters.
