    I have a faint recollection that this may been on here before but a search didn't turn up anything. It's a little trinket box made of brass with bird on top, cold painted I think. One the inside is a little square of sheet music. It's a pretty little thing 1 1/2" square. How old do you think it is? No marks on it. Thanks for looking.

    I checked your threads just in case (extra pair of eyes), but this is your first thread about this very cute trinket box.

    Thanks Any. Actually I should have clearer, someone else posted a similar or the same piece or at least I thought so.

    I think it's adorable.

    If so, I'm sure someone will find it. Maybe even me, but I'm not the world's best searcher.;)
    It certainly is.:)

    Thanks johnnycb09. I don't think anything was added. I found another one currently listed on ebay and it looks exactly like the one I have with the same embellishments (plus a dried rosebud inside). I am trying to find out its age but not having any luck.
