Exquisite spring load locked engraved high relief Victorian shell form silver plated biscuit box with hinged acanthus leaf pulls and a gold washed interior and convenient carrying handle. Although we do not know who is the maker it does bear the mark of a knights arm wielding a sword above a royal crown and the piece bears a patent #11,350 which dates it between 1854 and 1855. This rare and unique piece would make a fantastic gift or addition to any fine Victorian decorated household. Condition: slight (cleanable) tarnish to the exterior, overall excellent working condition. Size: 11 inches height, 10 inches length, 3 3/4 inches wide (when closed) and 14 inches wide (when opened up).
