Description
Late 19th Century Hallmarked Dutch export white metal (silver) – engagement proposal ring box. This Dutch lidded box is covered on all sides (exc. base) with lovingly executed rural scenes. On the lid is a simple but delightfully executed portrayal of a beau and his love [perhaps seeking her hand in marriage?]. As a result, we have taken the step of furnishing the interior with velvet and silk inserts enabling a modern Romeo (or Juliet) to follow this lead, and propose to their partner with a ring carefully concealed in this lovely little box. Ahhh!
