Object Description
This very nice crested George II silver cowrie shell box was made C1760 and measures 3 3/16 inches in length by 2.5 inches at its widest and is approx 1.5 inches deep. The silver base is crested with a bulls head and the flowing initials of TB inside a shaped cartouche with scroll and floral embossing, unusually the inside is lined with a copper back and it opens and closes well with the shell being in tact with no problems, a lovely box in very good condition.
