It was made by G. A. Scheid, signed G.A.S., owned by Georg Adam Scheid who started his own business in 1882 in Vienna, Austria after separating from the business he had with his father-in-law. He is well known for fine quality silver boxes, cigarette cases and other small items and this piece is no exception. It is small, about 3 inches high by 2 inches wide be the detail is amazing. The floral swag draped along the top and the oak leaves decorating the bottom are wonderfully realistic and shine beautifully over the dark blue enamel frame. The piece is well marked as I am sure the artist was very proud of his work. I can not read the touch marks but the G.A.S. is easy to see in two places. This would make a fine addition to your collection or an amazing way to show off a prized photo. See less
