Item Description
A fine sterling silver snuff box, fully hallmarked for Chester, 1915, and crafted by the prestigious Harrods Stores Ltd. Chester silver is highly collectible due to the assay office’s closure in 1962, making authentic early 20th‑century pieces increasingly sought after.
This elegant box features a classic rectangular form with a beautiful beaded edge and smooth polished sides. The craftsmanship is exactly what you’d expect from Harrods’ luxury silver department during the Edwardian/WWI era.
Clear, crisp hallmarks include:
RB Harrods Stores Ltd (maker’s mark) - RB was Sir Richard Burbridge, who was chairman of Harrods
Lion Passant – Sterling silver (.925)
Chester Assay Mark – Three wheat sheaves & sword
Date Letter "P" (1915)
Measures: 9 cm long, 3 cm wide and 2.5 cm tall and weighs 57.4 grams
A beautiful and authentic example of Chester‑hallmarked silver, ideal for collectors of antique boxes, gentleman’s accessories, or WWI‑period silverware.
