Likely Hingham area, Massachusetts, ca. early to mid-19th century.

All original paint, all dry surfaces, ranging in size from 3 ¾ inches (mustard) to 4 5/8 (green) to 6 inches (red). Appealing synergistic color contrast and graduated sizes. The mustard box is signed underneath, likely by an early owner.
