Antique, VICTORIAN, Sterling Silver CHATELAINE, Belt Clip, 5 Attachments

  
THIS A BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUE VICTORIAN BELT CLIP CHATELAINE WITH 5 ATTACHMENTS WHICH INCLUDE A STERLING THIMBLE HOLDER, FOLDING SCISSORS (GERMANY) BODKIN AND STRAWBERRY EMERY. THE FOLDING SCISSORS OPEN AS THE SHOULD AND ARE STILL SHARP!

THE NEEDLE HOLDER IS NOT STERLING AND LOOKS LIKE A NEWER CHAIN HAS BEEN ADDED. A BEAUTIFUL LARGE REPOUSSE BIRD IS IN THE CENTER OF THE CLIP. ALL THE ATTACHMENTS EXTEND FROM BEAUTIFUL, YET UNUSUAL, SILVER FILIGREE MARQUISE SHAPE CHAINS. I BELIEVE THE SILVER CHAINS, NEEDLE HOLDER AND CLIP IS 800 BUT HAS NOT BEEN TESTED.

I KNOW YOU WILL JUST LOVE THIS UNIQUE PIECE! IT IS ALWAYS A PLEASURE BRINGING YOU GREAT TREASURES THAT I HAVE FOUND EITHER IN AUCTIONS OR PRIVATE ESTATES. BECAUSE MOST OF MY ITEMS ARE OVER 100 YEARS OLD, EXPECT TO SEE SOME AGE-RELATED WEAR OR A LITTLE IMPERFECTION HERE AND THERE ESPECIALLY ON LACE OR FABRIC. NOTHING MORE THAN YOU WOULD EXPECT TO SEE AND ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE TO CONFIRM AGE. SOMETIMES WHAT I MIGHT THINK IS NOTHING, YOU MAY NOT AGREE.

MY ITEMS MAY BE A LITTLE ECLECTIC BUT THEY HAVE A SPECIAL MEANING AND BRING ME JOY AND I HOPE THEY WILL YOU ALSO. SO, PLEASE LOOK AT ALL THE PICTURES AND USE THE MAGNIFICATION TO REALLY SEE AND APPRECIATE THE CONDITION AND HOW WONDERFUL IT TRULY IS. THAT'S ALL FOR NOW...
