<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 13031775, member: 4654"]For a tenner go can't go wrong, personally I've shied away from brass inlaid boxes because they are easy to fake, hoshiarpur brass boxes have a certain pattern but they don't have anywhere near as much value as ivory inlay but for the £13 I paid it's worth more than that. I don't about the brass inlaid box you have, it seems well made, sometimes I go by the hinges to date boxes if I can't find anything else, it's clearly Indian and looks old but other than that I just don't know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
