Maker of this asian (tea?) box?

Post by zilverik »

Hi,

This asian (tea?) box measures: 10,50x7,00x6,00cm
Weight: 324,9gr

Any idea about the country and/or maker?

Regards,

Zilverik

Hi Zilverik,

Most likely a jewellery or trinket box, made of brass. The marks, especially the smaller marks, are not clear.

Clearer photos would probably help determine origin, maker, and approximate date.

Hi David R,

Yes you are right. The box is not made of silver, but brass. The marks are fantasymarks.
Thanks

Regards,
