The item looks like it could be from French PoW’s during the Napoleonic period! What do you think?
The dimensions are:
H 70 mm
W 100 mm
D 70 mm
Which makes it quite small.
Can anybody help please?

The ark of the covenant and the key to something really important.
Probably a frequency device or apothecary. Wonder where the lock is located…..
Dear Phill
Many thanks for your interest, it is a tiny box with a wooden seal, the closest I’ve seen is a metal lodge seal from the late 19th century, bit nothing like this, it looks a little crude suggesting in could be a piece of French Napoleonic PoW art. It was definite made to hold the seal.
