This is lovely antique Victorian metal purse, with Art Nouveau styl influence...made of brass & copper with a gilt metal chain. The inside is also lined with velvet material.

The catch and the hinge are both very ornate...see photos.

In excellent aged condition.

It is approximately 12 cms x 9 cms x 6 cms....the chain is 90 cms long so can be carried on the shoulder.

A rare and most unusual piece.

Old Cougar Bourbon =Whisky belt buckle, approximately 8.5 cms x 6 cms.

This is a stunning silver (I think it is plated but it is rather heavy) mirror and brush set, with ornate pattern on backs and handles. They are in excellent, as new condition, and would stand out on your dressing table. The mirror is 24 cms long.

This is an elegant vintage C 1910 brush and mirror set with ornate brass work on handles and back. The backs are also fitted with that 100 yaer old plastic (forgot it's name). The mirror is 32 cms long. The hair/bristles on the brush as woven into a block of wood which is typical of the Victorian/Edwardian era.

This is an old sterling silver clothes brush. The silver back is dated from its hallmark to be made in Birmingham in 1925. It is in excellent condition overall for its age. The brush is still very functional. The hairs on the brush are woven into a block of wood. The only problem is that the silver back plate comes off occasionally, but clicks back into place, and you might want to glue it on properly. This is a minor problem.

I have two of these stunning clothes brushes...both exactly the same. They look brand new even though they was made 66 yrars ago. It was given "to Bob from Mum" on "Feb 3rd 39"....looks like Bob did not use them at all. They are typical Art Deco with a walnut veneer back, and stainless steel edging. The hairs are woven into a piece of wood as is the case with fine brushes. I kid you not, these are in AS NEW condition. The name plate, which were made of 9 ct gold have been removed and reprocessed. The brushes are 11.5 cms x 5.5 cms x 3.5 cms.

Old style (not sure of age as condition is so good) mirror, hair brush and comb set, with ornate flower decoration on backs. The hair in the brush is woven into a thick piece of glass and plastic or glass and can be removed for cleaning. The mirror is bevelled and in very good condition. The mirror is 34 cms long (that's quite big), the brish is 25 cms long and the comb is 20 cms long. The items look to be gold plated to me. They are stunning and would complement any dressing table. They would make an ideal Christmas gift for someone too.

This is a nice good old tall-ish stainless steel shaving mirror. good height if you are sitting at a desk....don't you hate the ones you have to bend over for. It has a mirror on both sides, not sure if one is a bit bigger (concave) or not. It is in very good condition, and stands 40 cms tall.
