WE believe this is the work of Thomas Barton, either as lead designer at Edmund Nye's manufactory or during his early indepdence.
Notes : This has elements of different company features from the latter part of the 19th century and in to the 1900's from the period when Boyce, Brown & Kemp transitioned in to Kemp & King and then into the Tunbridge Wells Manufacturing Co; the rather indistinct floral band is typical of the latter but the general form of the box is a little too good for their outturn whilst other elements point to an earlier source - perhaps when BB&K were still utilising the remnants of Barton/Hollamby stockpiles
