51268-Antique British Sterling Silver Retractable Toothpick with Case

51268-Antique British Sterling Silver Retractable Toothpick in Sterling Silver Case This elegant antique British personal tool combines refined craftsmanship with Victorian aesthetic. The main body casing is crafted from polished sterling silver, featuring a beautiful natural metallic luster. The front section is fitted with a detailed sterling silver mechanism with classic smooth lines, creating a subtle yet exquisite focal point with its understated metallic luster. The most remarkable aspect of this piece is its exceptionally rare, fully enclosed double-protection structure. Unlike common retractable toothpicks found on the market where the inner tube remains exposed, this piece features a standalone "sterling silver protective case." Through meticulous 19th-century silversmithing, the delicate toothpick and its functional pull ring are completely contained within this outer sleeve, ensuring absolute dust protection and ultimate privacy when closed. Fitting a perfectly flush cap alongside a seamless miniature sliding mechanism within a limited, substantial silver tube demanded ultimate mastery from period artisans. Custom-made by private workshops, each piece features a unique luster and hand-finished movement, offering a distinctive collector's identity that brings a sense of historical ritual to your desk. https://youtube.com/shorts/HdCS-UrNLcU?si=jmAe62OW6TOV_9G8 *Content：1 Piece (including sterling silver outer case and retractable inner toothpick)。 *Size：Outer case L 7.3 cm, Outer case D 1.0 cm, Inner tool L 5.7 cm。 *Weight：Total weight 15.5g (Outer case 11.5g, Inner tool 4.0g)。 *Material：925 Sterling Silver。 *Origin：UK。 *Year：Late 19th Century。 *Hallmarks ：Yes (925 sterling silver hallmarks)。 *Reference code : W51261-2304。 ⚠️ Condition：Antique with authentic patina.
