Title: Old Heart shaped jewelry box. (Garage sale find)
Post by: Peaceman on May 21, 2013, 02:34:19 PM: Here is another piece I picked up at the same garage sale as the bride's basket I posted. I paid a whopping $ 2. I was told this was very old as well. It has no markings. It weighs 2Lbs 2.5 oz. It is 6.25" in length and width and 3" high. It is 3-piece molded. Maybe a gift back in the day with the brides basket? Any help would be great.

You lost me on that one...

Either that box has a new liner or it is in awfully pristine condtion to be truly antique. I'd guess reproduction.
