I have this box which is 3" high x 3 3/8" across x 2 3/4" wide with a hinged domed lid and scroll work around the top. I am trying get help identifying the makers mark and age. If anyone could help please let me know.
I believe it is a newer American piece but not sure.
The pictures are not that great because of the reflection but the mark is fairly clear.
Thank you.

Hi,
Anna's husband was Heinrich Eicher, he was a Kalo silversmith until 1914 and worked at home with Anna afterwards. I've never seen documentation on his having had an individual mark and I am not really offering his name has a possibility.
The design of the piece seems more in keeping with the modified Georgian styles produced in Boston and I suspect that it originated on the east coast and somewhat later than the Eicher's c.1910-1930 years.
Regards, Tom
