Measuring 6" by 3 3/4" and weighing a substantial 2.7 T. oz., this flat-bottomed dresser or pin tray is encircled by a 1" wide, 3/8" high, raised border with an applied rim.
The rim is acid etched in an elegant design of scrolling acanthus leaves with floral compliments.
One side has a shell-like reserve that is engraved with a line script "JNE" monogram.
Measured yet expressive in style and manner, this piece evidences the dignity and proportionality of traditional classic design.
Dating from the late 19th to early 20th century period, it was made by Gorham, whose "lion, anchor, G" emblem, "Sterling," and model number "433" are imprinted on the underside.
In excellent estate condition, this is free of bends, dents, or marring. The finish is warm and even, showing only light surface scratches consistent with age.
