Object Description
This super George I silver and tortoiseshell snuff box was made C1720 and has the bust of King Charles I carved into the lid, it measures 2 13/16 inches in length by 2.25 inches wide, it has silver sides, a stand away hinge and the base is also tortoiseshell. The bust is very detailed and still sharp, although it isn’t signed it can be attributed to John Obrisette as not all his works were signed and this must have been early on in the die as the detail is so good.
