Antique Questions Forum / Sterling silver Large box, what year and what value ?

« on: May 04, 2013, 09:10:16 am »

I have came to acquire this beautiful box and I would like to know a little about it. The box is relatively large for being sterling silver (about 10" x 6.7" x 2.75" roughly) and the net weight is 955 grams (2 lbs 1.7 oz) with the inner wood lining removed. The only markings on the box is underneath and it says "made in Siam" which apparently is Thailand.

I would like to know if anyone could guess a rough estimate of the age and value. Your help is greatly appreciated.
