Description
This round silverplated trinket box marks a 16th birthday with a raised number 16 standing proud on its lid. The figures are picked out with small clear crystals, and more crystals are set in a circle around the edge of the lid, so the whole top catches the light from every side. The box itself is a smooth, polished silver cylinder with a fine line where the lid meets the base, keeping the look clean and simple beneath the sparkle. It is a small piece, about 6.2cm tall, 4.9cm wide and 5cm deep, which makes it easy to tuck into a gift bag or sit in the palm of your hand.
A 16th birthday deserves something that lasts beyond the party, and a trinket box is a gift that keeps being used. It sits neatly on a dressing table, a bedside table or a bedroom shelf, ready to hold a favourite pair of earrings, a ring, a fine necklace or a few small treasures from the day itself, such as a ticket stub or a folded note. Because it is so compact, it takes up very little room, and the polished silver suits almost any bedroom, bright and colourful or soft and neutral.
The box has a real silverplated finish with a high polish, and the lid lifts off to reveal a pale ivory lining, a gentle setting for anything delicate. To keep it bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp, harsh cleaners and abrasive pads, which can dull a plated surface. A silver polishing cloth used now and then will bring back the shine. For gifting, we like to pair it with a birthday card and tuck a small piece of jewellery inside, so the very first time the lid comes off there is a surprise waiting.
