A charming small rectangular grey metal box from an old Portuguese manor house, full of quiet character and genuine age. Compact yet pleasingly weighty in the hand, it measures 7.5 x 4 x 2 cm and weighs 0.1138 kg. Based on its size, form and comparable antique examples, it was most likely made in the 19th century, probably as a pocket snuff box or small personal box. It remains in good antique condition, with age-related wear consistent with careful use over time. A distinctive piece for collectors, curiosity cabinets, or elegant period-inspired interiors.
