This offering is for a nice Damascene sword-style letter opener marked on the blade just in front of the round hand guard, “Made In Spain”.

Absolutely beautiful and intricate full-bodied dragon on scabbard, plus Foo-Dog or Gargoyle head on handle, and other designs embellish the top of this brass handled, brass sheathed letter opener. The embossing, or chasing on the face is very detailed and appears to be carved into the brass. I first felt that it was cast, and it may be, but the detailing seems considerably cleaner and sharper than what I normally associate with castings. It is heavy and appears to be cast brass. The back is well... Click for details

Very nice oval Dutch tobacco box of a form typical of the last part of the 17th century. Very well made with heavy gauge brass with engraved scenes on both sides of women drinking.

These were cast in two parts; we have a photo of the top without the bobeche showing the seam lines at the corners. There is some wear to the decoration from years of polishing and a very minor repair to the co... Click for details
