Antique 1919 Sterling Silver & Enamel Boxer Dog Vesta Case – Birmingham – Henry Williamson Ltd.

Elevate your collection with this exquisite piece of Edwardian history. This solid sterling silver vesta case, hallmarked in Birmingham in 1919, is a masterpiece by the esteemed silversmiths Henry Williamson Ltd.

The front features a captivating, hand-painted enamel plaque of a Boxer dog. The portrait is remarkably detailed, capturing the alert expression and noble profile of the breed with lifelike precision. The silver case itself is decorated with elegant, engine-turned linear engraving, providing a sophisticated texture that complements the smooth enamel.

The lid remains tight with a strong “snap,” and the striker on the base is crisp and unworn. This is a truly exquisite acquisition for the serious Boxer enthusiast or connoisseur of fine English silver, offering a look into the refined world of early 20th-century gentlemanly accessories.

Measuring 2″ tall x 1 1/2″ wide x 1/4″ thick, this piece is in exceptional antique condition. Notably, the enamel portrait remains vibrant with excellent glaze integrity, free of the common spidering, hairline cracks, or chips often seen in century-old silver enamel. The silver retains a beautiful patina that highlights the engine-turned details.
