A fully Hallmarked, Antique Sterling Silver vesta case by H Pope, dating to 1899 and in a plain, attractive design

Measuring 48mm long excluding the loop, 31mm across and sitting 10mm deep, the vesta is plain and highly polished with just one tiny bruise as pictured, which considering the age is very good

Fully Hallmarked it was made by Henry Pope and was assayed in Birmingham in 1899

To the base it is engraved in tiny letters, PEARCE & SONS.    I do not know whether this was a retailer or was made for a Company of that name

The bail loop is also stamped with the lion passant for Sterling Silver

Other than the bruise referred to above, there is no damage that I can see and the hinge is nicely aligned with a firm closure
