A charming handmade pewter box with a mouse in the centre and a quote from Robert Burn's well-known poem "To a Mouse" around the outside of the lid.

Scottish gifts

Keepsake boxes, ideal gifts for Burns Night.

This splendid Tim'rous Beastie handmade silver coloured keepsake box is the perfect gift for that special Scottish someone!

Robert Burns

"Wee, sleeket, cowran, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie!"

On the underside of the box lid, are the words: “To a Mouse, Robert Burns 1759 – 1796.”

Our Tim'rous Beastie box is 5 cm (2”) in diameter and is presented in an organza bag.

Hand crafted

Every Glover and Smith tim'rous beastie box is handmade from polished, Solid lead free pewter which is non-tarnishing (that was the lead in old pewter) and completely nickel free and food safe.

Because our designs are all created in Solid metal, the surface of your to a mouse box will never flake like a silver plated keepsake box. To clean, simply wash with warm soapy water.

All G&S pewter boxes are designed and made exclusively by us in our own workshops in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
