Description

An assortment of Silver Plated Ceramic and Brass collectables featuring a Ceramic vase, a Wittner metronome, and assorted curios. The Ceramic vase is of ovoid form with a waisted neck, decorated with tube-lined floral motifs of a white-crested bird and a red poppy against a dark green ground. A Silver Plated set of tableware comprises four cylindrical napkin rings and six salt cellars modelled as swans, presented in a blue velvet-lined case. The lot includes a Brass evening bag with chased avian and floral motifs, a purple velvet lining, and a curb-link chain. Further items include a cranberry glass bottle with gilt enamel scrolling, a cobalt glass liner, two hatpins, and a box of miscellaneous metal components and beaded jewellery. Notable marks include the Wittner Taktell Piccolo name and trident logo on the metronome, and the characters ER 1952-1977 on an enamel badge.
