I have a book called "Antique Porcelain Boxes, Identification and Value Guide" (Harran) which states the following on pg. 25 regarding Sevres Styles boxes: "It is rare to find an authentic Sevres box in the marketplace today as they are mostly found in museums and private collections. In the mid to late nineteenth century a Sevres style developed in France. Many box were produced by a Limoges or Paris factory and decorated by Paris Studios." </p><p><br /></p><p>I think the odds are very good that you have one of these Sevres Style boxes. These copies are of value - anywhere from $75 to $200 according to the book - although those prices strike me as a little high in today's market and would depend at least partly on size and decoration. I hope this helps.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
