The base is stamped Dini e Cellai, Signa, a town just outside Florence. It's a dresser or desk box, for earrings, cufflinks, or nothing at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e[d]Dimensions | \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e2 in. H x 4 in.

The surface has not been cleaned. The silver plating is worn through to copper at the high points of the relief, most visibly on the lid and the shoulder wreaths, and the recesses carry a dark tarnish. The underside shows the same wear, along with a few pale marks where residue has been left behind. The cream interior has a glazed, ceramic-like finish, though I have not established what it is. It carries dark spotting across the floor, staining at the rim, and green and white deposits. The lid fits snugly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePlease review all photographs closely, as they form part of this description.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67636983922966,"sku":"ENM-2282","price":290.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/October2026-15104.jpg?v=1793830603","url":"https:\/\/austyn-marie-design.myshopify.com\/products\/antique-neoclassical-style-silverplate-trinket-box","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
