Silver Snuff Box Horse Head Cameo Design

The beautiful silver snuff box has a image showing two dogs in a cameo design on the lid. The design shape of the box cleverly mimics that of a horse shoe, which adds to the quirkiness of the snuff box.  It is made from .925 silver, is hallmarked on the reverse of the box and is finished to a high polish.

The silver horse head cameo design snuff box has a 'horse shoe' shape best described as approximately 3 cm in length at longest point and 2.5cm wide at it's widest. It has a 'usable' depth of about 1cm. The silver weight of this snuff box is approximately 19g.

It would hold in our opinion 3 -4 g of snuff; so depending on your usage levels, should hold enough snuff for about a day.

If you're having trouble imagining that amount, then it would / should hold the approximate quantity of a small J & H Wilsons snuff tin.

The silver snuff box itself is 'hinged' and the lid closes tightly with a 'snap' and is snuff proof. The hinge is on the outside of the box and when the box is closed / open does not come in to contact with the snuff and so will not clog. However care should always be taken when filling to ensure that snuff doesn't clog the hinge.

This beautiful silver two dogs round design snuff box is bound to be a conversation starter and would make the perfect gift for the snuffer in your life - or treat for yourself!
