business cards.

The lid fits
cleanly and the hallmarks are clear and distinct. The front cartouche has an applied silver,

in excellent original antique condition with some very minor pushes, and a
couple of tiny dints to the outer edges, otherwise without repairs, holes,
splits or serious dents or damage - a superb little piece.
