<p>[QUOTE="Curioser, post: 4104077, member: 13823"]I am guessing at Bohemia as the region for this very heavy cut crystal or glass lidded box. It's about 4 1/4" wide and 3 1/4" high. The glass/crystal is quite thick. There is a gilt brass frame and hinge, not exactly the best fit top-to-bottom. The deer appears to be jumping a fence around "palm" trees. There is a mis-cut or such on the front left corner, not a chip but it appears the cutting tool made some bad clips.</p><p><br /></p><p>It has what I would call some wide "gray" cut curving forms within which are sharper-cut hatch cuts.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone have an idea of age or maker? Is this average quality? Weighs over a pound and has no marks.

[QUOTE="Curioser, post: 4104077, member: 13823"]I am guessing at Bohemia as the region for this very heavy cut crystal or glass lidded box. It's about 4 1/4" wide and 3 1/4" high.

It has what I would call some wide "gray" cut curving forms within which are sharper-cut hatch cuts. Does anyone have an idea of age or maker? Is this average quality? Weighs over a pound and has no marks. I apologize for photo clarity, I'm not very good at shooting uncolored glass. Thanks in advance!
