Vintage Enameled Fancy Engraved Personal Hinged Box Snuff Pills Cream Prayer Beads Ash Asian Eastern Turkish
This is a vintage hand crafted small personal hinged lidded jar, box, container with beautiful enamel work and etched hand crafting in solid brass. It has some writing across the top but I can't read it. Would be good for Pills, Cream, Snuff, Prayer Beads. From the writing it looks like it could be Asian, Middle Eastern, Turkish etc, Other than some small dimpled dings in the brass on the lower sides from age and use it is in excellent condition. The lid locks securely and stays in place. The top has lovely workmanship and no damage. Size is 1 1/4" across the enameled top, just about 1 1/2" across the center of the body and 7/8" tall off the table north to south. The brass has quite a bit of age patina which has not been cleaned. This is a lovely vintage box for your personal items.
Antique Etruscan Austro Hungarian 900 Silver Estate Pin Brooch Hallmarked
This is a gorgeous early European Hungarian 900 silver lobster hallmarked fancy Victorian Etruscan pin brooch. The early punch mark hallmark has numbers/letters above the lobster indicating its late 1800s Austro Hungarian origination. The back has its original early antique Victorian era elongated C hook clasp. Any marks you may see on the back are from the hand making and hand tooling on the front. Excellent, gently used, all original condition. No damage or repair. Size is 2 3/8″ east west by 1 3/4 north south. The Etruscan work on the front is highly detailed, crisp and beautiful indicative of its European Victorian period making. This is an unusually fine brooch for your antique and jewelry collection.
