Octagonal Silver-Plated Trinket Box with Glass Lid

This item is an antique or vintage octagonal trinket box, likely used for jewelry or other small keepsakes. Its primary material appears to be silver-plated metal for the base and a clear, colorless glass for the lid. The box features an eight-sided, faceted base with ornate, pierced metalwork forming a decorative band around its circumference, just below the top edge. This filigree-style pattern adds an element of elegance and detail. The base rests on four short, squat, dark-colored feet, which lift the box slightly off the surface. The lid is also octagonal, complementing the base, and is made of thick, clear glass with a slightly domed or beveled surface. The top of the glass lid may have an interior circular indentation or design, though it is difficult to discern clearly. The metal surface shows evidence of patina, indicating age and silver tarnishing, consistent with an item that has not been recently polished. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures from the available images. Given its style, it could date from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed metalwork, suggests a mid-to-high quality production for its type.
