HANDSOME ART DECO STERLING SILVER TABLE MATCHSTICK BOX. CHINESE CARVED CARNELIAN MEDALLION. An appealing box in the manner of Edward I. Jewelers did business in San Francisco – rather far from Farmer’s prestigious NYC store! The box is superbly crafted with sharp corners and almost flush 5-knuckle hinge. A complex shaped-to-fit beaded bezel frames the Chinese pierce-carved and incise decorated orange-red carnelian or red jade? I’ve not encountered another early 20th century American silver table matchstick box with striker. 2.4″ wide, 1.7″ deep, 1.1 to gemstone top. 2.4 gross ozt.
