Mint condition vintage Gorham silver plate / silverplate lidded heart shaped jewelry box with a gold toned figural bow and red velvet lining both on the inside of the heart box and the inside of the lid.
Silver and silverplate boudoir accessories became very popular during the late 19th century. Inexpensive manufacturing techniques provided elaborate and valuable-looking objects, including jewelry boxes. Collecting silver and silverplate jewelry boxes or jewel boxes has reached a near-fevered pitch, as there are so many styles to choose from to express one's personal preferences.
No silver plate wear or loss noted, no dings or dents, no scratches. The interior red velvet lining is like new! This vintage (1970's) Gorham silver plate lidded heart jewelry box measures 4" x 4" x 2.25" tall (at the gold toned bow) and weighs a beefy 13.9 ounces. The original gold foil Gorham Silver sticker on the bottom has been lost over the years. You can read more about the history of Gorham Silver from our Silver Manufacturers pages.
