Pocket Watch Chain Vesta Case Fob Victorian Large Silver Nickel 1890s Ornate Fob

Original Victorian Gentleman's large and highly ornate bright silver nickel pocket watch chain Antique Vesta case fob. Similar to the fobs I have supplied to Pinewood Studios. (Please excuse all the reflections/dark shadows in the pictures - was very difficult to photograph). Measures; 4.8cm height, 4.6cm width (including the side ring), 1.1cm depth and weighs a heavy 28.4 grams. Very chunky oblong shaped, mirror finish Vesta case fob which is beautifully engraved to the slightly domed front with a heavy scroll work decoration incorporating a large circular, un-engraved cartouche to centre. The concave back is smooth, highly polished and free from any inscriptions or initials. Lid opens correctly to exactly 90 degrees, closing very tightly (mouse trap action) and the large hinge is true and firm with absolutely no play. Big crisp ribbed striker to base and robust steel side ring to attach to a Gentleman's pocket watch chain. Excellent clean and bright condition with no wear and just some overall small indentations (possibly battle scars from when the original owner fequented his local beer house) / patina and little surface scratches commensurate with age. Will arrive in a new velvet presentation pouch and be securely and safely packed. ***WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE*** UK - FREE! ROYAL MAIL 1st CLASS SIGNED FOR DELIVERY
