Elegant late 19th c. intaglio print and hand painted silk leaf, 27.5 cm guards and superb embroidery addition of sequins. I'm still working through my own collections of decades, and this one has bone guards, monture and silk satin leaf. There is no box for this one but it's been stored in archival protective wrap and is in very nice condition for age. I do not see a signature on this one. Elegant open slender sticks! Full measurements noted on the photos.
Very good to excellent for age and type. The guards and sticks, monture on this one are bone, the long striations visible. There is a joint in the bone on the back guard, but this is not a flaw nor restoration, seems original to the piece. I find no breaks or damage to the monture. There is a little wear but no splitting. Bone monture.
