Curious Old Pewter Cradle Shaped Box with Baby! painting of boy with pipe I can't imagine ever tiring

I can't imagine ever tiring of looking at this

but structurally just fine

perhaps because this man looks like such a happy and friendly sort

as I think each has its own distinct personality

there is a tiny scotch tape mend on the back of one but they're all standing tall without another tear that I can find

Curious Old Pewter Cradle Shaped Box with Baby! painting of boy with pipe I can't imagine ever tiringAnother very unusual one, which I have tried hard to find out something about, with no luck at all, including attempts to trace the mark. A box for storing silver diaper pins? A container for a child's ashes? A mold? I really have no idea, but find it quite an evocative and slightly haunting object. Definitely pewter and I assume British, with a mark that looks to read ICH together with a lion. If you know more than I do about this, please share! 4 9
