The collection also contains items featuring corporate branding for BMW and McEwan’s. The items are presented in a rectangular burl-wood veneered storage box with a hinged lid. The lid is decorated with a small metallic inlaid crest in the upper left corner.
Box dimensions: approximately 19 cm x 14 cm x 6 cm.
Condition report:
The collection appears to be in good overall condition. The individual pins and markers show minor surface wear and light oxidation to the metal components consistent with age. The enamelled decorative elements are well-preserved with vibrant colours. The burl-wood box shows minor surface scuffs, light scratches, and general wear to the veneered exterior. The hinges are fully functional and the interior is clean.
