I just bought an Persian powder box

I can see that is 875/1000 silver but no idea on age or who might have done it.

Any help is welcome

Regards

Good Day,

Lovely workmanship on your Persian box. The image shows some interesting aging in some areas of the under surface. Do not speak Farsi or Persian myself but do have a number of Muslim friends who speak several different languages, let's see if one of them can lead you in the right direction if that would be acceptable?

Must tell you though that for example I do not see a clean line around the left and top edge of the middle cartouche. May make that more difficult or not.

Actually Hada has already identified the maker and the city of it's manufacture in her response dated 30 Dec 2011 in "RE: unknown Persian? makes on matchbook case."

In my limited knowledge it appears to be Azadali in the city of Tehran. Do check the images for yourself.
