I have found more information which suggests
something other than what I have posted here.
I'm leaving this for the time being until I have
more concrete evidence about my newly found information.
As of 4/1/05 I'm still unsure if Sturdy is American or
Canadian. I'm leaning more towards Canadian.
Forgive me for any misleadings but this is a research project
in progress. More later.
Sturdy Of Massachusetts, maybe?
The mark for Sturdy is "tree silhouette" and
"sterling" on the bottom or the side.
Some boxes are engine turned, some have vintage monograms.
The Stepped Box is engine turned and monogramed. It's is
very goodcondition. The inside of all the boxes are in great
condition and vary in colors of velvet. The satin says "Steacy" "Brockville exst. 1860".
The Tiniest box of the 5 is placed in front.
