Stock No. 2075	George III silver filigree box with pull-off lid
	George III silver filigree box of oval cylindrical shape with a pull-off lid. The whole box is decorated in a most elegant and typically neoclassical style. The base of the box and the top of the lid are particularly decorative with loops and swirls simulating peacock's feathers and curled fronds. This is repeated in the centre of the body of the box but here the design is in the shape of a flower with a solid button as its centre. The sides of the lid and of the main body of the box are decorated with frieze designs in the neoclassical style.
