Hi Henrik,

Welcome to the Forum.
I don't think your box has traveled too far, the marks appear to be of the Hanau type. They are made to look like early English marks but the piece is probably late 19th/ early 20th Century. The maker could well be Gebruder Dingeldein, hopefully someone will confirm/deny this.

We even see these boxes and marks here in America.
Believe Trev is correct in suggesting Gebruder Dingeldein.
