Handsome Hammered


English Hammered Pewter Box with Hinged Cover (LEO Design)

Very handsome, very British.  A hand-hammered pewter box with hinged lid and rope trim. Perhaps it was a cigarette box or part of a bigger desk accessories collection.  Or maybe it was a tea caddy and part of an Arts & Crafts tea service.  Whatever it’s past use, its modern uses are numerous:  business cards, tea bags, jelly beans, filing cards, matches, hand-written wishes or the loose clutter (and keys) from your pocket each evening.  And it would make a sensational presentation box for a valuable, heirloom watch.
