Lot 794
Lot of Two Finely Crafted Desk Stamps, in Silver and Ivory. France, c. 1880-1920. Both slim, smaller examples, with neatly worked silver fittings on very tactile ivory handles, which are beginning to show a warm amber tone from use. The sealing devices are both simple monograms, one "MT", the other "MM," engraved as ornate caligraphic letters. Both pieces lightly used, and beautifully preserved. Heights: 3-1/4", 3-1/2". One with original fitted case; the other in the antique box it may well have come in.
Estimated Value $400 - 500.
