Hi this auction is for a lovely little vintage pill box.
Made up of a metal base in gold tone.
Detailed etched design to the base.
Square shape that measures approx 3.5cm across 3.5cm high and 1.25cm deep.
The top is inlaid with a single piece of brown material, looks like leather or vinyl or similar.
Inside has a little cream plastic liner and this is split into two sections.
I think probably originally would have been a pill pot but would also suit for trinkets, earrings etc or just for display.
In fair used condition, has slight surface wear to the edge of the leather and quite a bit of wear to the metal, some noticeable tarnishing to the sides and base.
There is a makers mark to the base, this is hard to make out but looks like Ascot.
Is from a smoke free home.
Unsure of exact age but would guess probably 1960’s or so.
Any questions please ask- thanks for looking:-)
