[QUOTE="Simona Buhus, post: 4303921, member: 17467"]Thank you so much for your reply, I have now cleaned it and managed to take some photos. It's solid 18 carat gold, the hallmarks on the middle and etui are an eagle, no frame around it, on the other side of the etui there is one more hallmark, can't make up anything. The others are hallmarked an alligator I think, please see photographs. I wonder if the letters from the monogram brings any bells, E.C as I think this type of set would have been targeted to higher class at the time. Can anyone give me a much closer date than my presumption. Thank you so much.
