Mexican Snuff Box

[dartsil]

HI all,

Can anyone assist with this particular box.

It is by Camacho of Mexico, I am however trying to determine the likely date of it, it looks 19th century but was just looking if possible to narrow down the date of it? I would guess c.1850-1880

Regards,

I would guess c.1850-1880

I think we cannot get closer than that.

Many thanks,

Just was not 100% sure,

Not shown as silversmiths per se, but maybe (?) look at commision merchant Francisco Camacho listed circa 1891, although only known here in iron metals: https://books.google.com/books?id=lLwXA ... th&f=false

Same period, there is also a Carlos Camacho listed as jeweler & watchmaker: https://books.google.com/books?id=Ip0CA ... nt&f=false
