Rare Antique Silver Goldfish Pin Cushion

There are a number of gilded fish pin cushions around but this one is a miniature and thus quite rare. Clearly hallmarked on the base for Chester 1908, it carries the maker's mark of Sampson Mordan & Co along with a Registration mark. Made from solid sterling silver, it is gilded all over, with the gilding slightly rubbed on either side of the body where it has been picked up. It has the original cushion and is in a great condition, although he does look quite grumpy. Complimentary gift wrapping is available on request.
