An absolutely fabulous example of an antique tunbridgeware chamber stick, dating to around 1860.<p>The base is made of rosewood and stands on four perfectly turned bun feet. The intricate tunbridge mosaic inlay is simply stunning.<p>Originating in the Georgian town of Tunbridge Wells, Kent, visitors began buying wooden souvenirs from the woodworkers of surrounding areas such as Tonbrige and Speldhurst.<p>During the 1830's James Burrows developed the tessellated mosaic technique which became the most well known type of Tunbridge Ware.<p>This is a rare and very collectible piece of tunbridge and simply perfect. A very sweet petite size, measuring 3 1/4" in diameter and stands 1 3/4" tall.
