Original caption

This vintage hand-painted Limoges porcelain box has a very specific purpose, and it's not actually meant for trinkets! It was designed to hold something very particular. The little brass latch on the front might give you a clue as to what that was. Any guesses? 🤔 Drop your answer in the comments! I'm curious to see how many people know what this beautiful little porcelain box was originally designed to hold. #Limoges #VintagePorcelain #Antiques #MysteryItem #SalesByHelen

Product placement

Sales by Helen (a) acts: the creator is showcasing a specific vintage item from their inventory, which is the core of their business model. Removing this would change the video entirely as it is a product showcase for their estate sale business. SBH (a) acts: the logo appears as an end card for the business. Removing this would remove the branding for the business.
