  1. One last thing, I believe that this is probably done by using the Lost-Wax Casting Method.
  2. Sorry, just to be clear, type it in a google search, not a search on here.
  3. If you type in "Ruby Lane Early 20th C. Chinese Bronze Horse", you will find an identical piece on there currently on their site. It might help with more information.
  4. Thanks keramikos, the first response was not helpful(as he has left this same response to several others), but yours certainly helps in detail. I have had this problem occur too and even had problems ...
  5. Looks more like a tree than a fish, since a bird is standing on the top.
  6. Thanks Fhrjr2, this is helpful, compared to the first response.
  7. Gee, sorry for ruining your day PhilDMorris. Next time I will run right home from my camping trip or try to find a local library and get on a desktop to fix the photos for you. At first, I appreciated...
  8. Great!!! Thanks for everyone's thoughts on this! I do believe this is what it is and the benign seeming pink cute squirrel must just be a distraction to the impending surprise cap explosion. Yes, tim...
  9. Squirrel is mounted and decorative only. Box must be pushed manually.
  10. Good thought on the coin, but no it wouldn't work that way, plus the round depressed area is smaller than a dime. I really think it is a detonator for a cap for a prank. On amazon they currently sell ...
  11. I put a pic of the other metal flap opened.
  12. I think I'm getting closer to figuring it out. There is another metal flap that opens and it looks like a place to put a cap (like an old cap gun cap) and the spring loaded piece would slam into it on...
  13. Cool, thanks for the site info!
  14. Okay, I think I found the maker for sure, but unsure of the age. It appears to be German and by Hochst. Anyone familiar if this is 18th century or after they started manufacturing again in 1947? I'm a...
  15. That was quick! Awesome, thank you! This made my weekend now!!!
  16. Awesome, thanks!!
  17. Thanks Kermikos! Although all that info is interfering with me concentrating at my work today.... :) I posted a little better pic of my hallmark. You can see either that they mis-stamped or restamped...
  18. Ugh, I thought that I nailed it when I came across this(see the last just attached pic that I found online), but they didn't list a maker.
  19. There is a similar dimensional German box (5 7/8" x 4" x 2 7/8") on ebay that is 343 grams and a second German Silver box at 386 grams 5.25" dia and 2.35" height. So I'm guessing that this one is righ...
  20. Thanks for looking into this with me!! @Keramikos, you are right, that does look like a crown also. There are German Silver Boxes on ebay that look similar in style, but I haven't matched up the hal...
  21. Thanks for the answers!
  22. Wm A. Rogers is the manufacturer- cross wr keystone. Fairly positive it is silverplate only.
    23. See more
