This round pill box measures 1.25 inches across the bottom and stands 3/4 inch tall. There are no marking as to a maker or metal content. I took it to a jeweler for testing and was told it tested at 800 silver and estimated it to be 1930s to 1940s time frame. I was also told that a majority of items made of 800 silver came from Mexico, but I can't verify that location.
Around the entire side areas are turtles, fish, eels, flags, and other like items. The top has floral carvings. As for the carved material on the top, I don't know if it's ivory, bone, or some hard plastic type material, but since it's applied to 800 silver I would think it's not some cheap material like plastic.
Delivery will be via USPS First Class Mail Parcel from Nevada. Buyer to pay delivery charges of $6.45.
ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST INFO:
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items will safely fit into a single box. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly, and again in November for the holiday season (so three times per year) the postal service increases shipping charges. This is what they call their "Delivering For America" plan in which they hope to become profitable. It's a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we've got years to go with multiple price increases on shipping charges each year. I try to absorb the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year unfortunately, I have to if I want to stay in business. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the increases when possible.

INTERNATIONAL PURCHASED: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they come from homes where smoking or pets were present. Unless otherwise stated, all items are sold in the same condition as when I obtained them.
