Donald Deskey attributed Art Deco Poker Box


I have owned this box including the chips for about 50 years. I am guessing that the box was made during the 1930's. Is anyone familiar with this box? Do you know if the original box was sold with chips, and if so, do you know their composition? The chips that are in my box are common "plain generic clay composition poker chips" without markings, which to me seems to be a mismatch with the box. (Given the era, I would expect bakelite chips.)

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sincerely,
Phil
