4-Toed Barbour S.P. Co. Silver Cigarette Box

By Allison1ga, 1 October, 2008
Description

Beautiful intricate silver box with many themes carved out, looks like it depicts a village of some sort (silversmith working at a table 9appears twice on box), Boy walking with dog, woman washing something in a barrel, man dancing,2 men sitting and drinking, husband and wife arguing with houses in the background, a couple dancing, a woman spinning yarn, boy playing the violin). The bottom of the box is bare except for the imprint of the trademark logo- in the shape of a half circle- on the arc on top it says Barbour S.P. Co. and the line underneath the arc says International S. Co. Below that 3949 is imprinted as well. The outside is in good condition although tarnished some. Inside however looks more used.

I have the exact same box, but with a wooden liner (keeps cigarettes fresh?)
