Silver Manicure Set
This antique manicure set is crafted from solid silver and presented in its original fitted case. The set includes a variety of implements for nail care, including a hoof-shaped horn pick, a nail file, two slender instruments, and a pair of scissors (likely a replacement). The case is lined with a faded silk or satin and features a locking mechanism, though the key is absent. The silver pieces are hallmarked, indicating their silver content and origin.
Condition and Collectibility
The manicure set shows signs of age and use, with some tarnishing and wear to the silver implements and the case lining. While the scissors appear to be a later replacement, the remaining pieces are consistent with the period. This set would appeal to collectors of antique silver, grooming tools, or vanity items, offering a glimpse into the personal care routines of a bygone era.
