[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 405500, member: 360"]Honestly! I leave this thread to get a bit of shut-eye and what do I see when I come back!? Thanks for all the responses everybody, but yes, it is a snuffbox. I asked one of the dealers at the shop and he said with the gilding in it, that's likely what it would be. I've seen snuffboxes of all sizes, from smaller than this, to much, MUCH bigger. Of course, you can use it for whatever you want, but the original contents would've been snuff. That toothpick box and card-case are adorable, but polishing that filigree would give me a conniption fit!![/QUOTE]
