    Hello

    Here is my first post lockdown mystery.
    A ceramic box in the shape of a mouse, with a carved image of more mice underneath. I'm not sure what you would call the ceramic, it looks grey with brown/black flecks, all glazed except for the inside of it's ears. Base metal, I think once silverplated mount/hinge.

    I have found other 'normal' looking painted porcelain mouse snuff boxes online but nothing like this.

    Measures 7cm width, 4.5cm depth, 4.5cm height.

    Thanks for looking

    I considered it but I'm sure it's some sort of ceramic. I looks very clay-like
