<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 1209636, member: 308&quot;]Welcome popraaqs - your Grandma certainly left you a wonderful item to remember her by.&nbsp; The lack of a mark makes it difficult to attribute it to any specific maker but it does look like clam shell boxes produced in France.&nbsp; The decoration would also be typical of the the French style.&nbsp; It is also rather difficult to provide you with a date of production.&nbsp; I have a book on trinket boxes (Harran) and they show a clam shell box very much like yours and attributed to the Limoges region of France.&nbsp; That box was dated to circa 1860&#039;s - 1870&#039;s but that shape was produced on and off for over 100 years and may still be in production. </p><p><br /></p><p>The link below will take you to seller on Etsy with a box very similar to yours.&nbsp; The seller has attributed it to Limoges even though it too is unmarked.&nbsp; You may need to copy and paste the link into your bowser to access it. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/720958137/vintage-trinket-clamshell-limoges-french?gpla=1&amp;gao=1&amp;&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=shopping_us_christmas_Jewelry&amp;utm_custom1=0b221ab3-e76e-48f1-9fb7-2e7e81a4e08d&amp;utm_content=go_1707294370_69268674449_331635229800_aud-301856855998:pla-295491029933_c__720958137&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiA2b7uBRDsARIsAEE9XpEJSPXlRm4jovLOjcHxJBYa-QG-8JF39jnFspAJJzpDeFYpkHGTSfAaAjMqEALw_wcB" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/720958137/vintage-trinket-clamshell-limoges-french?gpla=1&amp;gao=1&amp;&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=shopping_us_christmas_Jewelry&amp;utm_custom1=0b221ab3-e76e-48f1-9fb7-2e7e81a4e08d&amp;utm_content=go_1707294370_69268674449_331635229800_aud-301856855998:pla-295491029933_c__720958137&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiA2b7uBRDsARIsAEE9XpEJSPXlRm4jovLOjcHxJBYa-QG-8JF39jnFspAJJzpDeFYpkHGTSfAaAjMqEALw_wcB" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/720958137/vintage-trinket-clamshell-limoges-french?gpla=1&amp;gao=1&amp;&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=shopping_us_christmas_Jewelry&amp;utm_custom1=0b221ab3-e76e-48f1-9fb7-2e7e81a4e08d&amp;utm_content=go_1707294370_69268674449_331635229800_aud-301856855998:pla-295491029933_c__720958137&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiA2b7uBRDsARIsAEE9XpEJSPXlRm4jovLOjcHxJBYa-QG-8JF39jnFspAJJzpDeFYpkHGTSfAaAjMqEALw_wcB</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
