According to The Jewel Box Book by Joanne Victorie Wiertella, this cast metal jewelry and ring box is in the style of colonial revival. Each side of the box has a different scene in a raised relief. The scene on the lid is my favorite. It's a gentleman pushing his sweetheart on a tree swing. How romantic! This ring box measures approximately 3" x 2.25" x 2". The lining is the original and quite lovely floral faille.
