The picture of this gorgeous silver box doesn't do it justice. It is an oval hinged box with gilding. The top is like an orangey amber sunburst done in enamelling. This sunburst is surrounded by a gilded rope design. The silver is finished in a soft matte brushed finish with the top embellished with gilded dots.
