[QUOTE="KSW, post: 2877614, member: 8708"]Lol!. I wasn’t sure if they were Neiger but I had an inkling they could be. They were at a weekly antiques fair in the £10 tray which as you know is about 10x as much as I usually like to spend:hilarious:. Seller was some pompous woman who acted like I’d asked to inspect her knicker drawer when I wanted to look in her glass case. It’s part of a manicure set I think for cleaning under your nails. It’s a bit sharp though so could end up with no fingers. It was completely black when I picked it up for 25p:shame:. I pick them up when I see them as they sell quite well to restorers of teddy bears etc. Ive got quite a collection of mainly British lead toys but they have got harder to find and much more expensive so I don’t pick them up very often now. I’m very taken with that necklace too. Only £1 so back in my comfort zone! Shame it’s not signed. Clasp is a spring ring not a lobster clasp so maybe a few years old.[/QUOTE]
