CONDITION REPORT: The 19th Century ivory and turned wood counteriis in good condition throughout other than a small piece of material to the underside missing but this does not detract in any shape or form. The folding glasses in the case are in good order throughout. The lorgnettes may have been gilded previously but this has worn away leaving the base metal however they are still in working, serviceable order. The silver mounted bookmark is in good order. The gilded brass bookmark with cat mask terminal has the glass eyes still inset. The mouse on block on the opposite end of the ribbon is in good order albeit the alabaster block does have some very slight rub mark around the edges. On the whole this is a very good lot and faults would be basically wear and tear that is commensurate with age.
