[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 150782, member: 301"]Hair oils will degrade the shell over time , as in where it has been opened up by the cuts., and this cute puppy looks to have been worn a lot. The engraving looks rather unique , and the silver, hand hammered, and hand cut. Why the sterling mark is double stamped....??? I can only venture pre 1900......but need more research to see other like minded examples ... It did polish up well though !!! Very nice indeed ![/QUOTE]
