Hand Painting Of Bride Doing Make Up – From India
Paintings:
antique tobacco box with motto this is an early sheet metal tobacco box, that i'm dating to the 19th c but i've been told it could even be late 18th c. it is painted black with a pitcher, glass and leaves painted in gold above the motto "honesty is the best policy"also painted in gold. there are painted lines and squiggles decorating both ends of the top. there is paint loss, most noticeably to the top. the most noticeable losses are to the painted area just below the pitcher and at the top of the "h" in the motto. there is also paint loss to the edges. at some point someone gave the entire box (including the inside) a top coat of shellac or varnish, probably to preserve the remaining paint. the box has a sheen as a result of this. the box, itself, is in strong condition with only a little surface rust to note. this can be seen in the photo of the bottom (#4). this tobacco box measures 6 1/2 x 3 3/4 x1 inch. i've seen similar style tobacco boxes for sale for hundreds of dollars, but none had this same great motto. taking into account the condition of the paint, i'm starting this at just $39. any questions? please do not hesitate to ask. we want you to be satisfied with your purchase so, returns are accepted when initiated within 3 days of your receipt of the item. you must contact us first. and, please, if you are not satisfied, let us know so that we can try to make it right before you post feedback. please note: we only ship to the continental us. please wait for our invoice so that we can more accurately calculate shipping costs.we pay for a delivery ...
