The craftsman who made this hinged box was very skilled and created a fine design. The box has four ball feet, securely in place, as well as a copper ball knob on the cover to open, and 4 decorative "pearl-like" silver beads...possibly silver or aluminum. These are held in place by protruding above and below the cover, one sees them securely in place when the top is opened. The cover is enhanced with two graduated layers of copper above the basic cover surface, and th...en has the center of the cover hammered into a "cabochon" shaped oval having the capital letter F in the center. The original patina remains, with no one having attempted to polish or alter it over the decades. It is likely American and circa 1910-30. It measures about 4 1/2" L x 3 1/2" W x 2 1/2" D, on the ball feet. Check out my other items. Shipping for this lot within theUS contiguous states will be determined by the ebay/PO calculator.
