Description
This classic heart trinket box pairs a pearly white metal base with an openwork silver lid, built like a sunburst of fine bars radiating from a heart-shaped clear stone at its centre. Two rings of small clear stones follow the heart's outline, one around the edge of the lid and one closer in, so the top catches the light from every angle. Between the bars you glimpse the pearly white of the base beneath, which gives the silver a warm glow rather than a cold shine. It is a small piece, 3cm high, 6cm wide and 4cm deep, sized to sit in the palm of your hand.
At that size it suits a dressing table, a bedside table or a shelf, where it keeps a favourite ring, a pair of stud earrings or a few small keepsakes together and in sight. A first tooth, a folded note or a tiny charm all find a home in it too. As a gift, it makes a thoughtful present for Mum or for a grandmother who likes pretty things around her, and it is the kind of keepsake that tends to stay on display for years.
The lid is hinged at the back and lifts at the front by a small knob, then closes neatly back down onto the rim. Inside, the base keeps the same pearly white finish, with a silver edge running around the top. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and use a soft brush to lift dust from between the bars and around the stones. Polishes and harsh cleaners can dull the finish, so a gentle touch is best. Set it on a mirrored tray beside a perfume bottle for a dressing table that sparkles, or wrap it in tissue with a ring tucked inside for a gift that opens twice.
