Complete
Ornate Antique Silver Sewing Chatelaine
English
* 4 Chains & Tools * Circa 1890
This antique
silver plated chatelaine is
wonderfully ornate
with a flower filled horseshoe and a gentleman in 17th century dress on
the waist plaque, lacy
pierced
patterns on the chains and repoussé floral designs on the tools.
The attachments include
a velvet lined thimble
case (with sterling thimble), a scissors sheath
with steel scissors, a sliding pencil and a perfume bottle.
All
of it is in nice condition with the
original patina and no
dents or other damage. The
steel scissors have tight blades, intact points and cut pretty well.
The thimble is not marked but tests sterling silver. It has a faceted
rim, a wrigglework engraved band and is about an American size 8. It
has needle wear on the sides but no holes, repairs or other damage. The
wooden pencil pushes out for use by means of a button on the side. The
perfume bottle has a cork liked lid and the top screws down snugly. The
clip is strong with the original hinge and the chatelaine measures 13″
from top to bottom.
I stand behind
everything that I offer and guarantee that it is exactly as
presented.
