I sent these photos about a month ago and they were never posted. Perhaps they were lost. I believe this box is Chinese and the design, on the lid, may be a stylized "double happiness" symbol used in traditional Chinese weddings. Does anyone recognize the style of box or symbol? The box belonged to my grandparents so it's been in the family for 60-70 years.

Thanks
