Description

DATE: Georgian, c.1780

A charming Georgian collectable piece, a small, decorative case designed to hold miniature everyday tools- aka an etui. Its finished with gorgeous enamel flowers upon a baby pink background, and features the words "A Friends Gift"... "To the Most Amiable" to the front. And to the back, "Remember her who gives this Trifle" and "Esteem the Giver". This most likely would have been a sentimental gift to a friend, to show your love and friendship. Its a great size with a length of (just under) 4 inches- what will you keep in there?
