This is a beautiful multi-lobed silver snuff box made in Mexico or possibly Peru, ca. 1900. The hinged top reveals a gold washed interior indicating that this was a fine and prized item at the time of maufacture. The chasing and engraving is all of superior quality showing scrolls and rosettes all around. There is also a monongram in script on the top. A semi-ledgeble mark on the inside rim of the lid may say "alpacca" .
