A charming antique silverplate trinket box featuring a beautifully dimensional sporting dog in relief across the lid. The raised profile has wonderful character and an almost sculptural quality, with the softly aged silverplate giving the piece the patina and depth we love in old sporting accessories.
The interior is lined in cork, making it especially well suited for jewelry, cuff links, collar tags, keys, or other small keepsakes. At just 3.5 inches across, it is petite enough to layer effortlessly into a desk, bedside, library, or dressing-room vignette while still having plenty of visual presence.
A particularly good Martingale East find for the sporting-dog collector—and one of those small antique pieces that instantly makes a room feel more collected.
