Hope you can help date this little box...!

Hi,
 I've got a small blue and white pin box (?) with a lid.  I suspect it may
be old but I have no expertise in this field! 
I would, of course, be enormously grateful for your efforts and expertise!
Obiosuly I will try to upload some pics on this site but can't guarantee I will be able to!
bear with me!!
Most hopefully & cordially yours,
As ever!

Are there any markings on the bottom?

I would venture to say that it isn't that old from the general appearance and no further marks to go on.

Now those concentric squares on the lid  is called a Greek Key design.

And there is something about that piece I like. That unglazed portion of the lip edge on the underside of the lid intrigues me. My gut feeling kicked in on that one telling me it is a good one. Of course, I've had similar attacks of indigestion before.

I agree with you Cogar. I will share a tum with you for that indigestion. I believe it's chinese. and older then it look's.

Has the style/look as a shard box....but it isn't a shard box.

Can you please list the dimensions?

Here's a similar one made in china http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/Blue-Ceramic-Rectangle-Trinket-Box-Desk-Pencil-Jewelry_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ190292773442
