Title: Jewelry Box 19th Centry with Silk inlay?
Post by: talismanamerica on September 20, 2011, 09:37:53 AM

Found this in a storage... Showed it to an antique store owner ...Who told me its 19th Century and if I was willing to sell it to him for $50.00, he would take it off my hands. Please help!

Interesting, I would have made a mistake giving the guy for 50 bucks... Saw another antique guy and he offered me 75.00 haha... will try the third guy, perhaps they'll raise it to 100. The second guy told me its pretty vintage and he has the perfect buyer for it.

   maybe the fact that it is Silk inlay is helping drive the price.
