[QUOTE="Touchdry, post: 1257253, member: 12381"]Hello Folks, This dear little enigmatic three legged box has got me wondering. Before I use it for my beard balm I would like to put it to you good people as to whether I have a vintage porcelain trinket box - or is it a very well made modern thing? I don't really know what it is - maybe for earrings and stuff - any ideas? I cannot see any mold ridges ... or any markings whatsoever - DOH! Because it appears to be well made I was wondering whether it had some age? Height 3 inches diameter 4 inches. It has a slight transluncecy - like porcelain ... could it be, or is it white china clay. Anyway, I thought you might like to see it before I put it to work! (unless its worth thousands!!)
