Antique Box... help!
« on: June 03, 2010, 06:03:33 pm »
This box has absolutely no tag or initials- I've tried to research just the design but I can't even find that.
Any ideas?

-- Added some pictures!

The figures look like "Precious Moments" product line to me , xrachelbagelx .

You can trust me when I say I'm no expert on these types of items , though .

Welcome to the forum , BTW .

It does look similar to the Precious Moments artwork, although there are some differences with the eyes and such. I did a bit of research for precious moment antiques and could not locate this box.

Thanks for the reply and the welcome! :) <3

Also, my mom bought this for me when I was little so I know for sure it is older than the 90's

Not sure if that is very helpful, but I'm trying to figure out anything I can!

Also, on the outside of the box, there is glass covering the girls and boys holding flowers-- just wanted to add that in.

Hope someone knows something!

Is it really glass , or plexiglas (plastic) ?

Sorry, you are right- it is much more like plexiglas.

I love this little thing, it's adorable. Would look very cute on a shelf in a baby room. I'm guessing it's from the 70's. Kinda 70's style to me. No idea who made it though.  :-\

I've heard of this type of purse being called " a window purse" .

Have you checked out Enesco , while searching ?

Still no clue here .
