With its original tag inside "Made in Italy for Peck & Peck" the box appears to have minimal - if any - wear at all.

02020109/Dunhill High Polish Chrome Cigarette Lighter
Some objects and accessories, although not wearable, are simply considered jewelry because of their style and quality. Thus is the case with this wonderful Dunhill cigarette lighter that was finely crafted and displays with such flair even a non-smoker might be tempted to carry it to the 5:00 cocktail hour for no other reason than to ignite that important colleague's tobacco. Measuring in between 2.5 and 2.75 inches, this ribbed and slightly "S" shaped lighter has a flip top and side revolving ignitor that catches the light with tremendous flair. Ideal for that perfectly manicured hand, this flame thrower is a class act all around. Appears to need only fluid as it easily sparks and is in Excellent Condition.View Signature

080201033/Interesting Ethnic Mult-Faces Collar Pin and Clips
I'm sure there is a name for a three piece accessory such as this, but I am at a loss other than to describe it to you! It is designed to sit at the top button of a button down shirt with a face clip affixing to the tip of each collar point. In a highly polish rhodium, the faces appear to be South American, perhaps, but look friendly in a way. To die for against a black or darker colored shirt! The large center piece measures 2.5" in length and 1.75" in width. Each small face measures .75" wide and a but more than 1" in length. A triple strand metal bead cord attaches the clip to the center piece. It appears from the back that the large face once also suspended something but it's not there now and although it doesn't distract from the piece in any way whatsoever, it would have been fun to know what was there! With the exception of the missing mystery piece, this contraption is in Excellent Condition!

07020135/Egyptian Revival Enamel Pendant
I believe this may actually be a tourist souvenir from Egypt after the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922. Egyptian revival jewelry was very popular and lasted a good many years. This necklace pendant (both sides are shown in the picture) features enamel work on a brass base depicting the king on one side, the sphynx and pyramids on the other with Hieroglyphic embellishments on both sides. Measuring 1.25" in diameter (not including the bale) this piece is in marvelous condition considering its age and has the most miniscule amount of enamel chipping. Very Very Good Condition.

01070108/Gilded Brass and Glass Czech Belt Buckle
Signed Czecko on the one end of the clasp, this two part belt buckle is ready to be attached to your choice of belt - be it fabric, leather or metal. I can imagine how lovely this would look against a black velvet waist hugger! Embossed gold gilded brass metal houses a bezel set domed piece of glass. Inside the glass is a topaz colored glass that appears to be foiled - similar to antique Christmas ornaments - in the design of a rose with surrounding leaves. Measuring as a pair 2.5" across and individually 1.25" in height, this accessory is in Excellent Condition and is similar to the example shown in Ettinger's Popular Jewelry 1840-1940 on page 175.

072301010/Signed Simmons Chased Cameo Locket
The Simmons Company, established in Attleboro, Massachusetts in 1873, was responsible for a number of "firsts" in the jewelry manufacturing business. They claim to be the first to sign their jewelry and upon the ring at the top of this locket is the signature "Simmons." From the late 1800s, this locket is beautifully chased and contains a bezel set hand carved shell cameo in the center of an unusually shaped case. Opening on the left versus the traditional right side that we're most familiar with, the inner cavities are large, deep and alas, empty. The reverse side of the case is a highly polished gold and while no marking is evident, I'd venture the piece to be rolled gold (a layer of gold atop of base metal) versus gold filled due to its tremendously high luster. Suspended from your favorite chain, the cameo locket measures approximately 1.5" in length by 1" in width. With detailed work of this piece being simply magnificent, the accessory is in extremely good condition.

072301018/Ornate Cast Metal Cross Pendant
I can't even begin to try to date this piece but I'd venture a guess of turn of the 20th century or perhaps a bit earlier for two reasons: (a) the casting of the cross is very crude as evidenced by the edges and (b) the closing style of the hand wrought ring from which the pendant suspends. Measuring 2.75"in length and approximately a tad short of 2.5 in width, this pendant is large however the airiness of the filigree style tones down the size making it very wearable. While there is one break in the filigree however this would appear to be a result of the casting process and not breakage from wear. Good condition.
