We are pleased to present an antique British sterling silver chatelaine case.

A chatelaine is a type of accessory worn by ladies and worn on the waist by inserting it into the belt.
Women's clothes at the time did not have pockets, so they carried pens, sewing tools, and other items in these pockets.
This is a work from the George Unite workshop in Birmingham, England, dating back to 1854.
George Unite is a master craftsman from Birmingham, England, who specializes in small silver items.
The entire piece is beautifully decorated with piercings and carvings of flowers and birds.
It's too narrow to fit modern glasses, but I think it would fit thin items like scissors or a comb.

We hope that this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you.
