Product Details

A fine and unusual early 20th century 900 silver gilt vesta, likely American in origin. 

The vesta is in the form of a sealed envelope, with the front bearing a silver stamp and the address 'His Excellency, Count d'Aico Valley, Washington' and the reverse showing the envelope folds with a match striker to the stamp end.

There is some tarnish to the gilt and the hinge is a little over-sprung; it opens nicely but has lost its 'snap'.

A great little piece.
