This is a FABULOUS GRAND TOUR CAMEO BOX.I believe it to be brass quite heavy.IT has 7 cameos on it.The top cameo has a sliver missing on the left side ,it has been filled it with plaster.Comes with a key to the lock Some of the silk still left inside.Very ornate and from my own collection.The size is 4 by 5 1/2.The top cameo is 3 by 4 inches.The cameo of Hebe is a replacement..The cameos are of Mary, Jesus John,angel with baby,lady with dog Some rare cameos I have never seen before.The box is heavyThe price reflects the damage

From around 1850-60.Looks great. All engraved and fancy looping on sides.A one of a kind
