Buccelatti Sterling Silver turtle trinket Box.This tiny trinket box has been in the family for almost 50 years and has been cherished. It measures 2 1/4 inches long and 1 1/4 inches wide. It has a tiny stress fracture behind his front left leg. It measures about 1/16 of an inch. It is pictured. His shell pops off so you can hide a special ring, a lock of hair. Or it makes a very extravagant pillbox! We are very torn about letting it go as we know we will never see the likes of anything like him again. It is beautiful hammered Italian silver. Buccellati is one of the most well-known and respected silver companies in the world, top of the line, as far as we are concerned. To own a piece of Buccelatti is to own a very valuable piece, a treasure for a lifetime. It weighs .8 ounces. I included a photograph next two other pieces I am selling so you can have better perspective of his size. I will also be selling the London sterling silver sugar spoon 1897, and an 1828 silver and ivory letter opener with magnifying glass.
