It has a very classic traditional style and would make an excellent accessory or addition to any snuff box or trinket box collection.

Side Kick Story: I received this as a gift box with 24 k jewelry inside, unfortunately now I'm allergic to most metals and this box has been stored unused now for many years as I was hoping to get well. I hope this gets passed on as an heirloom item as it was my intention.
