I have in my collection a silver trinket box with a lift off lid. It has marks on the bottom, but my searches reveal no clues as to their exact origin. They even may be upside down! I would appreciate any help you could provide. Thanks, Allan
Small Silver Trinket Box Chinese or Japanese
Re: Small Silver Trinket Box Chinese or Japanese
A pretty traditional Chinese silver box, the mark is 廣昌華. Without a city mark, it's hard to tell which city it was made in.
Re: Small Silver Trinket Box Chinese or Japanese
Thank you for your information. On the knowledge that the box is Chinese does the mark give any clue as to the age? I assume later 20th century. Am I correct? Regardless, I do appreciate your help.
Thanks,
