What a very, very nice find. I don't see them vary often.

Beautiful set. I have to say I am a little jealous of you luck in finding that.

I would guess late 1800's, but before 1890 unless for use in country.. The term "Warranted" in usage then meant as good as the advertizing or there would be legal trouble.Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

Beautiful set.
I can't date it, but perhaps a lock smith could help zero in on the date of the box. Apparently lock and key designs - like straight razors - have small details that average people don't know about (or care about) that can usually give an age range.Some people never go crazy.
