Lot 300o A Contemporary Silver-Tone Metal and Faux Pearl Inset Lidded Jar

A contemporary decorative lidded jar or trinket box crafted from polished silver-tone metal. The globular body and domed lid are embellished with a repeating pattern of circular rope-twist borders, each containing an inset white iridescent cabochon, appearing to be faux pearl or mother-of-pearl. These sections alternate with bands of a repetitive hammered or dimpled texture. The jar is supported by a smooth, flared circular foot and finished with a matching domed lid topped with a spherical finial. The piece is characteristic of modern mass-produced decorative home accessories often found in high-street or online retail markets. No maker’s marks or hallmarks are visible on the exterior of the object.
