I bought one swan box like yours in an auction here in Brazil.
When the swan was delivered, i really thought it could be a glass made in China nowadays.
Despite we do not know where it is from, i am happy to know that it can be from the 60's!

The pattern on it looks Bohemian.

Found one with a label... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Studio-Crystal-Decorative-Collectible-24-Lead-Crystal-SWAN-Trinket-Box-/181744542686?roken=cUgayN

Label reads as follows... Studio Crystal, by Studio Silversmiths, Made in China

They have a range of glassware... http://www.tableandhome.com/brands/studio
