In our collections for decades, this is a c.1900 fine quality manicure vanity set in leather-clad hinged box, etui, and with all of the original tools still inside. Silk interior, satin and velvet. Full measurements noted on photos.
Very good to excellent for age and type, it seems never to have been used. A keepsake or treasured gift. Leather outer case is excellent for age and interior silk in lid shows age more than anything else. Implements are all nicely preserved.
: We are great supporters of protection for endangered species in our modern world. We never buy or sell anything 100 years or newer; we donate to anti-poaching organizations; we don't hunt; we conserve in ways that impact global warming (we're totally solar at home), knowing those measures also protect the animals in the wild today. We also recognize the vast cultural history we preserve with our care and reverence for these antique objects, and agree with CITES that objects over 100 years of age have nothing whatsoever to do with species depletion in our current world.
Our offering exceeds the age limitation of "more than 100 years of age", and is well within the exemption for CITES regulation. If imported, met the CITES regulation. This item will be handled and shipped from our Utah business, and is not available for shipment internationally, nor within the USA to California, NY, Nevada, Hawaii, New Jersey, Oregon, Washington if it contains ivory, sorry. Please see our small print for more details.
