<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cereus17, post: 9611899, member: 84316&quot;]Hi, I’m looking for any information that the members here can offer about this little hinged pill box (its approximate age, country of origin, materials…).</p><p><br /></p><p>I’m hoping that there are a few people in this group who are familiar with painted enamels / or with antique pill boxes who can guide me. </p><p><br /></p><p>The box is about 39 mm in diameter (just over 1 1/2 inches) and it’s about 17 mm high (just over 10/16 inches). I think the metal bottom is made of chased brass. (Is that the correct term?)</p><p><br /></p><p>My best guess is that the box dates from the mid to late 19th century and comes from Europe. (England? / France? / Austria?) Does that sound right?</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve searched Google Images and eBay for similar boxes but I didn’t find much information that seemed useful.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance for any information!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]468407[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468408[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468409[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468410[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468411[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
