<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 10526790, member: 84&quot;]I have this cute little (3 1/4&quot; x 1 3/4&quot; ) trinket box that I bought because of the intricate work of the filigree &amp; what I thought might be a vellum bottom because it has a softer, fuzzy - ish feel compared to the sides which are smooth &amp; hard - plastic?</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought the top &amp; corners filigree was wood, but researching showed many were made of bronze. This has a metal trim on the bottom edges &amp; around the edge of the interior - the gold look where top&#039;s lock/latch goes into bottom looks like it could be bronze - or brass, but how do I know what carved/filigree parts are?</p><p>PS - notice in close up of the corner of the top,&nbsp; the center of a flower fell out - is that more likely from wood or bronze/metal?</p><p>Any way to tell it&#039;s age?</p><p>Any information on it would be greatly appreciated!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]529182[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529183[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529184[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]529185[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529186[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529187[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529188[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]529189[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]529192[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
