Antique French Niello Dip Pen, Wax Seal and Letter Opener Page Turner Set in Necessaire c.1810, Engraved scoop Many tapestries are courser yarnsA stunningly beautiful desk set, 3 pieces in excellent condition throughout, these are works of art, really. Not only the silver vermeil work, but the engraved blade and engraved handles in a manner known as niello. We've found several sets from this era (c. 1780 1820) still in their presentation box, and with one more desk tool, a scraper (eraser). This set misses that piece and has survived without the box. They appear to have never been put to use.
