Beautifully ornate antique Georgian rococo sterling silver ETUI kit. Could have been used as a sewing kit or to perform household tasks.  The lid is hinged with a tab that is pressed to open. It snaps closed and stays closed and is in proper working condition.
Surviving tools are a knife, spoon, and pointed instrument on one end with a small bowl at the other end. There is a pencil that I do not know if it is original or not. The spoon has a few dings and a little warped on one side of the bowl. There is a small area of the seam that has pulled away on the lid (see photo 4). As there are no markings, this is most likely from the Georgian era.
Photo 1 shows one side of the kit, photo 2 shows the other side of the kit.
Aside from the small area of seam pulling away on the lid, the case is in fantastic condition and highly hand worked with leaves and flowers. The front of the case and back of case are different patterns.
No markings on the case can be found, tests as sterling. The small spoon has a few markings (see photo 11) however I do not know its origin. There are 7 compartments, 3 of which are missing instruments. Hinge in proper working condition.
Total Length: just under 3.5"
Width: tapers down, at top just under 1.5", at bottom 1 1/8", depth 5/16"
Weight:  52.66 grams
