Antique Ivory and Solid Silver-handled Page Turner 1898

19th century
Description

This is a lovely page turner, made by the silversmith Henry Matthews and assayed in Birmingham in 1898.

The silver handle is typically Victorian, ornately decorated with scrolls and flowers and it is engraved on one side with the italic initials JAG.

The handle is clearly hallmarked at its base and is firmly attached to the ivory sheath.

The ivory is in excellent condition - no rips or dents - just a natural curve that allows the whole item to lie flat on the surface, as the bulk of the handle would otherwise leave it wobbling.

The page turner is very long - 39cm in total.

A lovely piece of history.

Post and packaging is free within the UK via Royal Mail special delivery. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs. Thank you.

Declaration

The Silver Cabinet has dated this piece to the 1890s.
