Subject:Japanese makers mark? on plated box.
Posted By: Fred Wed, Jan 05, 2022 IP: 2001:8003:dd24:d701:
Hi Members anyone know the maker of this box.
I have seen Made in Japan,with same mark.
I feel it may be 1900 period or a little later.
Regards Fred.

Hi RJH
This is the Erhard&Sohne mark (logo,also on key)
Their boxes were very fine quality.
I will also post my other one,also known for fine brass inlay work,had worldwide patent in 1904,this next box in their 1904 catalogue.
Fred.
