<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 4312772, member: 4654"]I did contact the Denver art museum via their Facebook site, unfortunately they didn't want to help directly. I asked "Hi I wonder if you could please help? I see you have in your collection a coquera. I have owned an art box for a number of years and haven't been able to find out what it is or when it was made, I now think it might be a coquera. I live in the UK and don't really have any source of looking such things up here. I wonder if you could please tell me if it is and what date? Here is a Facebook link to detailed photos, Thank you in advance <img src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/teb/2/16/1f642.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> This was their reply.</p><p><br /></p><p>"Hi there, Thank you for reaching out.
