Handcrafted in Italy during the 1970s to 1980s in genuine 800 continental silver, it features detailed representations of straps, closures, and side seams.

In late twentieth century Italian silver craftsmanship, master workshops created intricate miniature novelty containers designed for curiosity displays and high end dollhouses.

Carrying official hallmarks including the 800 continental silver purity stamp, this unrecorded model weighs 16.18 g. One of the bottom feet has a minor defect affecting how flush it sits on perfectly flat surfaces, which has been directly factored into a reduced pricing structure.
