Antique Enamel Patch Box | 18th Century Patch Box

This antique patch box features white and royal blue enamel with the quote, 'May friendship & Love Be ever United'. The box (circa 1790-1820) is in great condition for its age and would make a lovely gift for a treasured friend.

It measures 1.5 inches by 1.9 inches wide and 0.95 inches tall.
