<p>[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 3481079, member: 111"]To my eye, with the extended 'antenna' handle, and the starburst motif, it looks mid 20th century, very much 'atomic', 'space-age', 'Sputnik', etc. - not sure I understand why enameling would indicate earlier age, a lot of my enameled pieces are MCM. No idea what it is (maybe just a trinket box or the like?), definitely missing its base (perhaps a tripod?) - an inkwell seems unlikely, not really a practical form for that use... </p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
