This looks like a hair receiver. I dont know the value.
Re: What is this object and what is is worth?
I agree that it is a probably a hair receiver (used for storing additional locks of hair to augment the women's own hair), silverplated more than likely. Classic Webster gadrooning along edges.If they patented designs in numerical order then this might be one of their first.
