18th Century Two Compartments Snuff Tobacco Box:
$95.00
An antique 18th century brass and tin-lined double tobacco/snuff box. The two compartments open separately with hinged lids. The top deep compartment is for tobacco; its lid has an engraved royal crest which may be Scandinavian or another European country. The opposite side has a shallow compartment with a polished steel mirror and some kind of red-painted ceramic seal; this side was meant for one of the fancy scented snuffs which came in vogue in the late 1700s. The lid is plain. Both sides have compression closures; they open and close tightly so the contents are safe and dry.
The box measures 3" x 2" x 13/16" thick (75 mm x 50 mm x 41 mm). Weight is 82 grams. The box has a little denting and wear but the mirror is in surprisingly good condition. There is a shiny oval shape on the top caused by an old sticker that I just removed. In time it will attain the same patina as the rest of the box.
