    Hello Susan thank you very much for the message.
    I've decided to sell the chatalaine as it is so I won't be replating or polishing and will be listing it as it is.

    Found the listing on eBay. Description was well done. The only addition to the description you might have added was the maker might possibly be Britton, Gould & Co. of Birmingham. Hope you have many bidders! For those looking for the listing, its number is 322457907105 and the title is:

    "Rare 1800's Antique Victorian Chatelaine Dress Makers Tools For Harrods Dresses"

    BTW, Aquitaine, that was the pic I used in my reply #33. That pic is from the OP's reply #15. The reply/message numbers are at the bottom right of the messages, under the pics. I straighten the pic a little and cropped it.

    I've also got some buttons that came with this chatelaine and I can't help but wonder what to do with them.

    Oooooooooooo! Sparklies! I know there is a market for those types of buttons and I am sure the Sew & Sewers will be along shortly - this will bump you up to the top, but if you don't get responses start a new thread.
