The jelly belly is Trifari and was a whole five squid. Cameo, which I need to clean but looks suspiciously like a gold pin and hinge was two whole...
I think it’s a box missing a lid.
The gilding on that Derby is superb. Especially when you remember it’s all freehand too. Nice early nineteenth rosewood tea caddy with original...
There you go. And yes, it’s lovely glass.
