<p>[QUOTE=&quot;say_it_slowly, post: 20919, member: 50&quot;]I found this box and was thinking it was silverplate from India until I looked closer.&nbsp; It is impressed AS 800 on the inside so I&#039;ve been looking at marks.&nbsp; It is a bit hard to search &quot;AS&quot; so I was hoping someone might recognize it.&nbsp; Forgive the bad photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>This measures 5½&quot; diameter, about 5½&quot; to the top of the rose finial and weighs 305 g. The interior is gilt (?) washed. I polished it up a bit as it was pretty grubby.</p><p><br /></p><p>I did find this auctions for a similar though smaller one from a few years ago, sold for $225 but a different mark and not much info.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.eliteauction.com/catalogues/110213/view.php?id=181" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.eliteauction.com/catalogues/110213/view.php?id=181" rel="nofollow">http://www.eliteauction.com/catalogues/110213/view.php?id=181</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for help!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]5172[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]5173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]5174[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]5175[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
