Trying to find the name of a piece using just a few bars of its sheet music

A friend sent me two pictures of a solo piano piece and I've been looking all over to figure out what it might be.

At first I thought it might be a Chopin piece (judging from the chords in the left hand), but I haven't found anything proving it. I know it's really far-fetched to expect that one could answer my question using only four bars' worth of music, but it'd be great if people could even hazard a guess as to what this could be. Thanks!

It's in A-flat. We know that much, don't we?

It's in 6/8. A waltz, perhaps?

It has a metronome marking. That dates it as after 1815, because the metronome dates from the early 19th century, where it was patented by Johann Maelzel in 1815 as a tool for musicians.
