An antique rolled gold sovereign case holder by Dennison, dating to c.1900. The case is finished with engine-turned decoration to both front and back, giving it a clean, precise look that catches the light well.
The mechanism is working as it should, snapping shut securely, with the internal spring holder intact and functioning correctly to retain sovereigns in place.
Marked and guaranteed to wear for 20 years, as was standard for Dennison pieces of this quality.
A well-made and practical example, with a reassuring feel in the hand and a level of finish typical of the maker.
Presented in excellent antique condition, with light wear consistent with age.
