SOLD 

This handsome, romantic Gorham sterling silver heart box is decorated with lovely scrolled flourishes on top and side, and has a handsome monogram which I believe is "HF" intertwined. The measurements are 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" x 1 1/2". It shows normal wear and very minor denting, but the hinged lid is working beautifully, and it is a handsome item. It would make a lovely, small jewelry box. USA c. 1930
