PASTED TO THE INSIDE OF THE LID IS A LETTER DATED JULY 7, 1898 FROM ABIGAIL CROOKER BEQUEATHING THE BOX TO HATTIE CROOKER, MAKING IT EVEN MORE UNIQUE THAN THE OUTSIDE DECORATION ALREADY DOES. THE 16 PIECES OF 1/8” THICK GLASS HAVE BEEN PAINSTAKINGLY DECORATED WITH SILVER & GOLD FOILS, AND REVERSE PAINTING. THE WOOD BOX ITSELF IS STILL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. SEVERAL OF THE GLASS PIECES HAVE BEEN DAMAGED WITH TIME. OUR OPINION IS THAT THIS WOULD BE A FANTASTIC CONVERSATION PIECE FOR ANY LOVER OF ANTIQUES!
