♥️ Description ♥️
A beautiful Art Deco era antique boxed manicure set, marked Owen & Robinson Ltd, Leeds. Dating to around 1919/20, the set includes a sterling silver hallmarked buffer, file, cuticle pusher, and a small jar, each with handles bearing the Birmingham hallmark. Despite the differing makers and some worn hallmarks, the pieces are united by their beautiful craftsmanship. The set also includes steel scissors.
The box, though showing signs of age with some wear and tear and a loose hinge, still exudes vintage appeal. The items themselves have some tarnish and a few small dints on the silver, typical of their age and use.
