About the Item

Art Deco lacquer box designed by Thomas. An impressive, beautiful and colorful box, created in Attleboro Massachuchet by the Charles Thomae Company, back in the 1925.

Thomae left the firm in 1920 to create his own business in Attleboro producing a variety of silver smalls items. This new company created a different hallmark, but if it was designed by Charles Thomae himself, his hallmark was used instead of that of his new company.
