An attractive and increasingly hard-to-find antique jewellery box by Mappin & Webb, featuring a classic oval form. The exterior is finished in a dark leatherette with fine gilt detailing to the edges, opening to a padded silk and velvet interior bearing the original Mappin & Webb retailer’s mark, “By Appointment”.
The generous interior and raised central pad make this box particularly well suited for bracelets, bangles, or similarly sized jewellery, while it would also work well for brooches or presentation pieces. A refined example from one of Britain’s most prestigious historic jewellers.
Dimensions
10 × 8.5 × 2.3 cm (length × width × height)
Condition
Good antique condition overall.
