The Box is circular in form, with a pull off cover. Both the cover and the sides are engraved with crisp beautiful bright cut and prick dot bands. The cover, in addition, is engraved with an unusual contemporary Crest. The interior displays fine gilding and both the base and cover are fully marked. Very few boxes, of any kind, were made in the Bateman workshops and to find an example bearing their mark is very rare. A very desirable piece.
