A very good & rare Georgian Silver Double compartment Toothpick / Tooth powder Holder Case Box hallmarked for Birmingham 1799 by maker John Thornton.
Measuring 9 cm x 1 cm x 1 cm and weighing approximately 15.3 grams.
Of plain design, no engravings or initials.
In good antique condition for its 226 years, hallmarks are rubbed but legible. There are scratches and small pin sized dings on all sides.
Both sides shut well, one side (next to the button) is a bit tight, a small indent near the central hinge, surface scratches, all commensurate of age and use.
I always inspect the condition of my items thoroughly before listing and point out any problems. I have uploaded many photos so you can see the condition for yourselves.
A rare period item.
