I am selling an assortment of vintage to antique jewelry and rings which I have hunted for and gathered from around the world.  Please see my other offerings and thanks for stopping by!
ABOUT:
Sweet antique Art Nouveau solid silver wax seal / stamp.  It has pretty Art Nouveau designs of a bird on a thorny rose vine looking up at three other birds flying in the sky.  Ornate engraving on the bottom of the seal of initials MR.  Even the top is beautifully designed with a flying bird and a rose leaf.
Antique piece that I acquired in France from the Belle Epoque era. The piece is solid silver, including the engraved part (which is sometimes steel but in this case is silver).  It is hallmarked twice with the boar's head hallmark and also has a silversmith mark I could not identify.
Measures 3 inches tall.
IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES:
Please note that all my pieces are pre-owned with some age to them so they are in estate condition.   One side of the smooth area above the bird has some deeper linear scratches and some nicks.  That is the worst of the wear but please look for it in photos.  A few scuffs and scratches otherwise, a few nicks from use.  A nice patina and not a lot of wear.   Please note that due to age this is not in mint condition.
I would be delighted if you'd follow me in my store.  Thanks for stopping by!
