I love real silver. It just feels better in the hand and looks amazing. My MIL keeps her daily silver (real too) in an antique wooden untensil tray on the counter in her kitchen, rather then in a drawer, which I thought was a fun way to enjoy it and also easy to get to it.
I always wanted to have a collection of silver snuff boxes. I only have a few now, but somehow , as a child, I always thought I'd be the type of old person who'd have a collection of silver snuff boxes under glass cases, I was an odd child :)
Lol! Most interesting adults were odd children.... or so I like to tell my odd little self!
I like the idea of a display box, might have to try that!
I think it is actually a cutlery box, it's old wood with a cute handle carved in the top.
True that about odd children :)
