help with small silver box

Postby rejd » Sat Sep 05, 2015 11:49 pm

I recently acquired this small silver box. it is 3" W x 2" D x 1.5' H. The mark on the bottom says 835 DELUX HS. I can't seem to figure out who made it or get an idea of its age. If I am correct, I believe 835 was most commonly used in Germany but I may be wrong. I am very new to all this so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi and thank you very much for the quick reply! I've been searching for some time and can't up empty. I was assuming it was European because of the 835 mark. Looking forward to learning more.
