I am sorry to tell you I know nothing about this box other than it sitting on my Grandmother's dresser since I can remember. She was born in 1902 and I have no idea when she got it or even if it was new when she got it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15277091224169007300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439103697481204358.post-1484513313936954792011-07-30T15:40:54.223-07:002011-07-30T15:40:54.223-07:00oh. i just read more. im sorry, do u personally kn...oh. i just read more. im sorry, do u personally know anything about the box's past?lyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826498580716603677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439103697481204358.post-78319074720627476682011-07-30T15:38:10.506-07:002011-07-30T15:38:10.506-07:00can you ask her were she got this box? i have a bo...can you ask her were she got this box? i have a box here, that has an image painted by what appears to be the same artist, but a different scene. i want to know who does these paintings. my box also has similar cut engravings.lyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826498580716603677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439103697481204358.post-51583017032736923552010-11-06T07:42:36.701-07:002010-11-06T07:42:36.701-07:00Such special memories...thank you for sharing!

My mother had a little drawer in her big dresser, stacked with fresh ironed hankies. We only have a few of them now, as she continued to carry them herself long after we started with tissues, but I treasure them.<br /><br />I wish I had her button box, though!<br /><br />Great blog, great fun.<br />Thanks for visiting ... don't look back, I'm following you. <br /><br />Cass<br />PS My HIGH SCHOOL reunion was 40 years ago and I'm beginning to regret my impulse to paint the kitchen AND cabinets myself.
