Delightful Victorian Silver Heart Shaped Pillbox Pendant

Delightful small item of late Victorian silver. This attractive pillbox is formed in the shape of a heart with a decorated repoussé hinged lid. The lid is hinged to the side and the interior is richly gilded. The central front cartouche has script initials and to the reverse is a charming inscription 'Souvenir Jan 3rd 1900'. Unusually the box is fitted with an attaching loop to the top, giving the option of being worn as a pendant from a neck chain. A lovely and practical piece and a great gift idea for someone special. Hallmarks:- Full, clear set to base and corresponding part set to lid. Date:- Birmingham 1899 Maker:- Adie & Lovekin Ltd
