At first I thought this antique Griebel Instrument Co

I believe every other facet on the long sides of the vase is exposed glass that has been frosted

I’d guess it dates from second half of the 19th century

with lots of scrapes and some paint splotches here and there

Vintage 1940s Lucky Strikes Tin with Custom Copper Cover functional ceramics are finelyAnother wonderful box! This is an old Lucky Strikes cigarettes tin, circa 1940s, with a beautiful custom made copper cover featuring a leaf and stem design in relief. I found one other Lucky Strikes box to which a copper cover had been added not nearly as fine as this one, but which suggests it is a thing that people did. I love that the sides of the box are left exposed, reading Lucky Strikes on the long side, and "It's Toasted" on the short sides.
