[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 11411744, member: 5170"]I know there's someone out there that can help with this! This is oval, lidded, what I would call a trinket box. The finish is matte blue with a gold decorative border around the lid and frolicking putti in relief, and it appears to be signed "G Limoges." It's 8" U.S. long, 6" wide, and about 4" high. The inside is glossy white. The bottom of the item has "Limoges/France" in blue, with " "Made in Limoges-France/for/The Antique Dome Inc./Miami Beach" stamped in gold. I'm going to say that I believe that this is mid-20th Century because of the name of the vendor. "The Antique Dome" just doesn't sound Victorian, ha ha. Deco maybe? I cannot find any reference to this vendor. I know we don't do evaluations, but I'll say that this is in the $100-$150 range. Too low? Too high? Let me know your thoughts!
