Antique Silver Trinket Box with Pin Cushion Lid

This gorgeous canoe shaped trinket or ring box is unusual insofar as virtually all the interior is original and looking good for it too. We have replaced the pin cushion velvet as years of hat pins had made it unusable. Similarly, the lower face of the lid which was missing has also been replaced with silk lining. Dating to 1907 it is no surprise that the Hallmarks on the body are rubbed, but nevertheless are still discernible. The ensemble is completed by a new exterior base plate finished in a dark green leather.
