This sterling silver card case is a one-of-a-kind treasure! It features a jovial monk at the dining table, complete with a stein, a bowl of fruit and either a cigar or large cigarette in his hand. The entire front of the case is covered in beautifully engraved billows of smoke. The details of the monk's face are wonderful, right down to the crinkle of his crows feet when he smiles. The back is engraved with three large, ornate initials. The sterling mark is clearly visible on the lower left ...click for details

This is a beautiful hallmarked sterling card case from the Art Nouveau period. Two women swim in the swirl of a repousse ocean wave. Next to it are three beautifully engraved initials. On the back, there is a sterling mark with the number 1281 and a mark that has been somewhat rubbed out, but is possibly that of William Kerr. The case measures 3 inches by 1 5/8 inches and is slightly curved.

This is a lovely Victorian sterling card case. In the center is a an idyllic lake scene, complete with trees, mountains and canoe. The scene is beautifully framed by an embellished shield. The case has engraved, patterned stripes over both the front and back sides.
The box measures 3 1/16" by 2 1/16". There is a small ping on the back, otherwise it is in very good vintage condition. It even comes in it's own original fitted box!
