Beautiful antique sterling silver clothes brush featuring an ornate repoussé border of scrolling foliate decoration surrounding a smooth, unengraved central cartouche. Measuring just 4" long, this compact grooming accessory would traditionally have been used to remove lint and dust from clothing as part of a gentleman’s or lady’s dressing set. The combination of aged sterling silver, natural bristles & intricate period detailing gives it wonderful decorative presence despite its petite scale.
CONDITION Stunning antique condition with expected patina, light surface scratching & age-related wear to the sterling silver. Bristles show very minor appropriate wear from age and prior use.
SIZE Approximately 4"L
PROVENANCE Antique estate piece, likely late Victorian to early 20th century.
MATERIAL Sterling silver & natural bristles.
STYLING SUGGESTIONS Style atop a stack of antique sporting books, beside a sterling picture frame or layered into a gentleman’s dressing table, English country bathroom, equestrian tack room or collected library vignette. The unengraved center makes it especially versatile for display.
