Total lot weight: No

The lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The sprung hinge to the glove stretchers is broken and appears loose. Hair to brushes appears distressed. Comb present to the mount is a later replacement. Case appears worn and broken to various corners, seams and hinges. Clasp broken. The case appears with some age and clearly made to fit this dressing table set, it is unbranded so unable to confirm if original to the dressing table set at the time of production. Tuck Chang mark to the silver overall is clear and legible and appears with some variation across the components.
