    I found this item at a gargage sale many years ago. The design appears to be made out of coin silver?? Patina is too heavy to find any markings or numbers. The design has trees, flowers, a wild boar and a lion?? The shell stands about 7 1/2 inches high and is about 4 inches across base. Appears to be brass base and the top is a gray metal. It is a rimmed casing. I really don't know much about it. Any info is appreciated.

      Post a photo of the bottom-- the numbers and letters may reveal some information as to era.

      Hi Scott, too much patina on the bottom, really all over. There are no visible numbers or letters. Thanks
