A very unusual eye-glass case made from stunning mother of pearl and brass. The use of both materials makes this a very attractive item. There is a central coat of arm which has been signed by the owners name "Siman Kramer". The edges and back of the case are all in mother of pearl. There is an attractive embossed border around the front of the case. The case is opened by pressing a small button which released the clasp to reveal the inside concertina section. There are two sections to the case all in the original violet paper.The concertina sides and the inside are lined with the original violet silk.Overall this is a spectacle-case in excellent but used condition and very collectable due to it's rarity.

Measures: 5.4" x 2.5"
