Antique Silver Pin Cushion - Possum

1900 - 1920
Description

This is a rare one! An antique sterling silver pin cushion fashioned as a possum.

He is clearly hallmarked for Chester 1909 and carries the maker's mark for Arthur Johnson Smith, along with a Patent Registration Number. He sports the original cushion, now quite worn, as well as red glass eyes. The body is beautifully textured, apart from the area above the tail and his head, where the detailing has been over-zealously cleaned. He is gorgeous!

Dimensions:

Length: 5cm

Width: 1.5cm

Height: 3cm.

The pound coin is for size reference.

Complimentary gift wrapping is available on request.

Post and packaging are free within the UK. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs and please note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying.
