1905 Antique British Sterling Silver Envelope-Shaped Card Case 52g Adie & Lovekin

We would like to introduce a British antique, pure silver card case.

This is a work by " Colen Hewer Cheshire " from Birmingham, England, in 1905.
The entire surface is decorated with scrolling plant patterns and floral motifs.
The cartouche on the surface is engraved with a monogram that appears to be the initials of the first owner.
It's an envelope-type design, with a flap-style lid that opens.
The inside is lined with cloth and gold plating, making it less likely for business cards to get dirty.
It's sized to easily fit current business cards and can hold about 12 of them.

I hope this "once-in-a-lifetime" encounter will become a special meeting!
