About the Item

A Polish silver snuff box from circa 1900 is a refined and elegant piece, embodying the craftsmanship and stylistic influences of late 19th to early 20th-century Poland. The box is rectangular with a smooth, polished surface that showcases its high-quality silver. The exterior is adorned with undulating scrolling engravings reflecting traditional Polish decorative styles that were popular at the time. The lid features a central cartouche with an ownership inscription bearing the name "Eliyahu the son of R' Yehuda Weiss" written in Hebrew. The hinged lid fits securely and portrays a landscape of a neighborhood with architectural structures of the period. Inside, the box is smooth and functional, made for holding finely ground snuff. On the inner side of the hinged lid the container bears the hallmarks of the region and period, indicating its origin and verifying the purity of the silver. This classic snuff box is both a functional accessory and finely crafted, reflecting the rich heritage of Polish silversmithing from the turn of the 20th century.
