    Description

    For sale is an unusual little handmade silver box in the form of a melon or other fruit. The piece is 1 7/8 inches tall by 1 7/8 inches in diameter and weighs 31 grams.  It is formed as a piece of fruit, with a stem and leaf on the top of the hinged lid.  It has horizontal tabs at the lip edges to make it easier to open.  The interior is covered with a black crust.  There are no visible marks, though there may be some hidden on the rim edge.


    Condition on the box is fairly good.  The interior is a mess; I don’t know what it was used to hold.  Still a handsome old box!
