Crowned G, gothic "C" in shield, Keys in shield Ha

Hi I think this might be German with the city mark for Goerlitz. It is on a frame that is marked 800 on each foot. the item is a very ornate biscut box. Three sections of shells with pirece inserts that snap shut and are hinged.







Thanks for your help. This is driving me nuts

According to my Tardy it's the town of Liegnitz.

I suspect, from the style of the piece and the conflicting town marks with the use of a later .800 mark, that the item is an example of Hanau silver. See -
