Art Deco solid silver 935 box with turquoise guilloché enamel, antique casket

  

Art Deco box in 935 sterling silver with turquoise guilloché enamel - antique casket. Superb rectangular Art Deco-style box in 935/1000 sterling silver, decorated with a remarkable turquoise guilloché enamel design with a radiating motif. The lid features finely executed mechanical guilloché work, creating a concentric radiating effect beneath a translucent, luminous turquoise enamel.

The contrast between the strict geometry of the radial pattern and the depth of the enamel gives the piece a strong visual presence, typical of Art Deco aesthetics. The base and underside feature a fine, regular engraved pattern, adding texture and understated refinement to the piece. The gilt interior helps protect the silver from oxidation, a traditional technique used in fine silverwork. Very good overall condition for a piece over a century old. Enamel in very good condition, with no major visible losses.

935 sterling silver boxes with guilloché enamel in this color are uncommon on the market, especially in this combination of vivid turquoise and Art Deco radiating motif. An ideal piece for collectors of antique silverwork, Art Deco enthusiasts, or as an elegant jewelry box / collectible pill box.
