<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 680342, member: 2844&quot;]Hi Bou.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; As Aqui said, the stopper could be silver, although it looks like it could be silverplated with some wear to the plating. It could have come from a bottle of the same material or glass with some decorative metal.</p><p>You can use it for a pretty bottle, which I am sure you have stashed away somewhere.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie75" alt=":playful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The carved box could be older than you think, my guess is late 19th century, possibly made in Switzerland.</p><p>Google Black Forest carved box, you may find similar ones. I know, I said Swiss, and the Black Forest is German, but any old Central European woodcarving is called Black Forest nowadays, even if it never saw the Black Forest.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
