    I found a very similar box. I wonder what her date is? Attributed to the Safavid dynasty (15th-18th century).

    Although the style of painting does not mean that the box was created at that time))?Hmm, tough question

    Exactly. Safavid style means that they think it is in the style of the Safavid era, but it is not of the period.
    The paintings are based on historic styles, including that of the Safavid dynasty, although lesser quality, but they never made boxes like this in the Safavid period.

    The price of the one in the listing is very ambitious.

    Yes, probably the box was dated incorrectly?Well, as I understand it, you sold boxes exactly the same in style as these two?

    As for the price, I probably overpaid too)). Thought it was something interesting.Paid about $80. Probably, if you buy, it would be worth taking within 30-40 dollars))Okay, but I learned something new)).

    No, I couldn't have sold souvenir type things to the customers of my bricks and mortar shop, way back when. But I came across quite a few of these boxes while looking for stock.
    You liked it enough to pay $80. It is important to buy things you like, even if you want to sell them. And who knows, maybe someone else likes it enough to pay more.:)
