THE GOLDSMITHS & SILVERSMITHS CO. LTD., AN EDWARDIAN SILVER BOX SET WITH SHELL CAMEO LONDON, 1907 Of undulating cartouche form, the hinged cover set with a carved shell cameo of the Three Graces holding a garland, within a chased wave-and-scroll border, the rims with similar borders. With concealed rear hinge and close-fitting cover. Maker's mark for The Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co. Ltd. London hallmarks Size/dimensions: 9.60cm long; 6.70cm wide Gross weight: 115.54g The cameo is in very good condition, with no cracks, and is secure in its setting. The silver has a soft grey patina, with tarnish in the recesses of the chased borders and traces of silver polish. There are micro-scratches and slight scuffing to the flat areas of the cover, but the chasing remains crisp, with no sign of over-polishing, denting or crushing. The hinge is in perfect working order, and the box is offered in very good condition. In 1952, the Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co. Ltd formally amalgamated with Garrard & Co. As part of the merger, the "Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co." trading name was retired. The newly combined company chose to operate under the Garrard name, largely due to their highly prestigious standing as the official Crown Jeweller.
