A wonderful small antique jewellery box crafted in dark turquoise velvet with a Liberty of London silk lined lid.

The box has four small compartments and a section of cushions at the top that holds at least ten rings, possibly more depending on how big they are and how the box is used. Please see the photographs.
The inside of the lid of this beautiful box is crafted in Liberty of London silk with their iconic Strawberry Thief design in vibrant turquoise Strawberry Thief is a William Morris design that was first produced in 1883.
The box closes with its original push button clasp. It is covered with black faux leather with a gold frame around the top. The lid sits upright or flat when the box is open. The box dates from the early part of the 20th century.
The external measurements of the box at its widest points are approximately 14cm X 15.5cm X 5cm tall. This is an antique box that has been repurposed box as a jewellery box.
Please look at the photographs as they form part of the description. This is an old box and as such shows some signs of wear and tear. This does not detract from the overall beauty of this wonderful jewellery box.
