I have this lovely old enamel and silver cigarette box and would love to know more about it. It features a Equestrian / Fox Hunting theme. It comes in its original leather bound, silk and velvet-lined box [which has some condition issues], on both inside panels there are two maker's marks. One is stamped 'GS' and there is another small maker's mark with a head. I can't make out the manufacturer's name but I can see it might be from Austria, Vienna.
