Description

Four pieces: an Our Lady of Guadalupe devotional medallion marked MEX and 925, a round sterling silver hinged pill box with a mottled brown lid panel and inlaid scrollwork, a thimble with a dimpled crown, rosette band and beaded rim, and a sterling silver hollow handle with floral repoussé. The medallion is inscribed N.S. DE GUADALUPE ROGAD POR NOSOTROS; the pill box bears a lion passant and date letter, and the handle bears an F&B flag, STERLING and 597. Surface scratches and tarnish are present, with copper-colored patches on the medallion’s lower relief. Total gross weight is 27 g for all four pieces together, including the pill box lid panel.
