Antique Hand-Engraved Gold Pill Box

About the Item

Beautifully detailed pill box with hand-engraving throughout. The careful faceting within the gold captures light at every angle, adding to its already luxurious fabrication. Meticulously hand engraved; a central figural flower radiates out into a swirl of plume shape flourished detailing on the top lid, which is repeated on the sides, the lid which opens up to further carvings inside. Engine-turned bottom; European origin, stamped 18k gold or specifically "750". Approx. 1-3/4" x 1.25" and 1/2" height. A tiny masterpiece; circa 1910 in excellent condition. Alice Kwartler has sold the finest antique gold and diamond jewelry and silver for over forty years.
