Asprey was one of the top jewellers and silversmiths in Edwardian England.

This charming sterling silver jewellery box bears both their silver hallmark for London 1908 and the Asprey stamp, suggesting that they were both maker and retailer.

The rich emerald green velvet interior is in lovely condition, with very slight rubbing on the contact points at the top. The inner lid’s moiré taffeta may be a replacement.

The front bears a monogram which appears to be FCC, or some combination of these letters.

Whether or not these initials are meaningful to you, this is a lovely touch of luxury atop a handsome box to house some of your favourite jewels.

Please note that the YouTube video seen below is a must-watch: the box’s extremely shiny surface was challenging to capture in still photographs.
