Antique Vintage Arabic Middle East Style Hammered Brass Box Made In Germany:
$45.00

This is an antique or vintage Middle Eastern looking hammered brass box.

It is marked on the bottom with a J inside a circle, and REAL BRASS GERMANY.

Given its Arts & Crafts feeling, I would estimate it dates sometime from the 1900s to the 1920s.

The overall box measures 2 5/8 inches tall (6.7 cm). The top measures 6 3/4 inches wide x 5 1/2 inches long (17.1 cm x 14 cm). The box section measures 6 inches wide x 4 3/4 inches long (15.2 cm x 12 cm).

I’m a little confused that a box made in Germany has Middle Eastern writing. Still, it has a great look about it!

The box has scratches, tarnishing and some discoloration. There is a section on the right lower side where the finish has turned green and white. There are some small scattered dents.

The box weighs 15 1/2 ounces (442 g).
