Here is one of the lovely Battersea or Bilston Enamel boxes, circa 1800. This one is cobalt blue, with a fat cherub on top, He is under the tree, and holding his scythe, ready to mow someone down. I thought this was in perfect condition, until I opened it and saw the inside of the lid. I saw there is a tiny crack. I could not even see in on the top, but when I checked the inside of the top for position, I could feel the crack on the top. It is not noticeable at all, and the top is secure. It's one inch in diameter
