ANTIQUE #SA1213706

Rare Antique Silver Pin Cushion - Monkey/ape

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: The Silver Cabinet

This is a wonderfully rare antique solid sterling silver pin cushion - a rather menacing, grinning individual. As he is without a tail, he is either an ape or a Barbary Macaque (a tail-less monkey).
 
He carries Import marks for Chester 1909 and sports his original cushion, now worn and quite solid. He is fabulously tactile, quite chunky for an Edwardian pin cushion.
