Antique 19th C Century Georgian English c1830 Tortoise Shell/Tortoiseshell Snuff Box/Tobacciana WOW!

(this item can only be shipped to the EEC per CITES regulations)

A fantastic Georgian snuff box entirely made of tortoise shell!

There is no silver or gold pique in this one, no ornamentation whatsoever, but the shape is incredibly slim and elegant, and the luxury of finding this superbly contrasted dark and blonde tortoiseshell, outside, and inside, seamlessly as it were, is just remarkable.

Simple and VERY precious!

MEASUREMENTS: Length: 5 1/2". Width: 2 1/4".

CONDITION: In very good condition for its 150 years, with a split due on the side, 2 minor chips and a couple bubbles.

The tortoiseshell is not dull but still VERY shiny.

Will be shipped Registered Airmail (very safe) with insurance and signature at delivery.
