A rare mid 20th century jewellery box by S. J. Phillips Ltd, retailed from 113 New Bond Street, London. The box features a square form, finished in red leatherette with gilt tooled detailing to the edges. It opens to a black velvet-lined base with a silk-lined lid bearing the original S. J. Phillips retailer’s mark, “By Appointment to H.M. The Queen”. A desirable and increasingly scarce example from one of London’s most prestigious historic jewellers, suitable for rings or small jewellery pieces.
Dimensions
5.8 × 5.8 × 2.7 cm (length × width × height)
Condition
Good vintage condition overall, with light surface wear consistent with age. The interior presents well, and the retailer’s mark remains clear and legible.
