Georgian Vinaigrette / Patch Box
This finely worked small rectangular box is crafted with traces of original gilding, its exterior lavishly decorated. The lid features an all-over textured ground framed by a bold border of stylised floral and foliate motifs, while the sides are similarly enriched with repeating leaf and bead patterns.
Boxes of this form were popular during the Georgian period and were often used as vinaigrettes boxes. When used as a vinaigrette, the hinged lid would open to reveal an interior compartment intended to hold scented vinegar or perfume.
Rich in texture and historic charm, this Georgian box is a fine example of decorative personal silver. It would appeal to collectors of vinaigrettes or small objets de vertu, offering both visual interest and a tangible link to Georgian social customs and taste.
Key Features:
- Dimensions: The box measures 17mm x 21mm
- Weight: 9.5 grams.
- Hallmarking: Hallmarked, Birmingham 1820, Joseph Willmore
