A refined expression of mid-century Scandinavian metalwork, this rectangular pewter (tenn) jewelry box illustrates the enduring influence of the Art Deco repertoire within Swedish craft. Executed by the historic Stockholm atelier Guldsmedsaktiebolaget (GAB), the vessel’s sleek architecture is neatly framed by subtly fluted corner columns. The lid opens to reveal its original, saturated purple velvet lining with integrated dividers, creating a striking material contrast between the cool luster of the exterior and the rich tactile warmth of the interior. Dated 1950 via its official Swedish year mark, this piece makes a distinguished desktop or vanity centerpiece. Condition: Very good vintage condition with light scratches, age-appropriate patina to the pewter and incredibly well-preserved interior velvet. Markings: Fully stamped with "GAB", "TENN", "SVENSK VARA", Swedish national control mark, and date code "Z8" (1950) to base. Length: 16.5 cm (6.5 in) Width: 13 cm (5.1 in) Height: 3.5 cm (1.4 in)

FAQ

Is the original purple velvet lining free of stains, odors, fading, and loose/lifting sections? Are the fabric dividers firmly intact?

Does the lid close flush and sit evenly, with a well-functioning hinge (if hinged) or snug fit?

Do you provide any documentation, certificate, or detailed photos of the GAB markings and date code to confirm authenticity?
