A very rare matchsafe in Sterling and Tortoiseshell in the shape of a tortoise, made in Birmingham, England in 1910 by Levi & Salaman. It is very realistically made even to the scale-like finish to the head and legs. Just a hairline crack to the shell above the head, is the only damage. 3.25" long, 2.5" wide.

A fabulous sterling compote by Gorham dated 1872, E, depicting a sword weilding goddess atop a globe which is supported by a pile of rocks. Their is an owls head on her breast.

A small but very ornate sterling mug by one of the more eminent silversmiths of that era, Sunshing. Marked on the base with S.S and a Chinese ideogram. Decorated all over with fruit-bearing branches with a branch handle. Very good condition. A shield-shaped `cartouche in front bears the monogram, a gothic "EO'HM". No doubt an Irish name so it could have a Massachusetts provenance. 3.75" tall.
