About the Item
Antique 14 K Gold Snuff Box C.M. Weishaupt & Söhne Hanau circa 1860
This rare gold snuffbox in the Rococo style was crafted around 1850 from solid 14K/585 gold by the Hanau jewelry factory CM Weishaupt & Söhne. The curved body is chiseled all around with very fine volutes and leaf tendrils. The hinged lid is decorated with two guilloché rocaille reserves and closes securely. This enchanting gold box is wonderfully preserved and hallmarked on the base and lid with the master's mark and the Hanau city mark. Measuring 6 cm × 3.8 cm, this fine tobacco box was probably used for snuff; it weighs 48.5 grams.
