[QUOTE="Potteryplease, post: 4078183, member: 16407"]That's a good idea! I was wondering if perhaps family members, like say grandparents, had come from those respective places, and this box was a way of commemorating them...?? My hope was that there was some sort of tradition of boxes like this, with some common characteristics that I could use to better ID this one, but maybe this is just a unique item. Im guessing the metal balls are 19th century firearm ammo? Does that look right?[/QUOTE]
