BUTLER & WILSON - PANTHER/LEOPARD BROOCH - COLOURED DIAMANTE STONES ON GREY METAL

This is a Butler & Wilson panther/leopard brooch.  It is on grey metal and is covered with diamante stones - many of them aurora borealis.  There are also some large, square glass stones.  It has an articulated tail and a loop for threading a chain etc.  It is in an unused condition.  I do not know the date.  Full details on the web site - www.gillianhorsup.com - just put in Butler & Wilson to see all the pieces I have.  Ref: 3366 YL  It measures about 5 1/2 inches head to tail.

EGYPTIAN REVIVAL CELLULOID COMB & CASE - NEFERTITI TYPE HEAD

This is a celluloid comb  case decorated on one side with a Nefertiti type head.  It is in good used condition - but not suitable to be carried around.  It needs loving care in perhaps a collection of Egyptian Revival pieces!  It is a wonder it has survived in such good condition.  Full details are as usual on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com under 'vintage manicure, combs and brushes'.  Ref: 3360 D46/22

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE SMALL ELEPHANT - MAROON RED & IVORINE

This is a smaller version of the Lea Stein elephant brooch.  It is in maroon red with ivorine ears and tusk.  It is made in seven layers which adds interest to the outline of the brooch.  I always stock a selection of Lea Stein brooches in my shop at Alfies Antiques in central London.  They are always popular.  This brooch is about 2 x 2 1/2 inches and costs £65.  Ref: 3359 D47/10

MAXINE DENKER - GOLD TONE CHARMS BRACELET

This is a Maxine Denker gold tone charms bracelet.  It is in a matt gold tone and has 9 charms - 4 with yellow glass pieces.  It measures approx 7 1/2 inches.  Maxine Denker started in the 1980s and is still making today.  This piece looks as if it was made in the 1980s but I have no way of knowing if this is correct.  It is in very good condition.  Price £75 ref: 3358 D46/14

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE QUARRELSOME CAT - FLORAL PATTERN

This is the quarrelsome cat brooch from Lea Stein.  I call it the tall cat because it is nearly 4 inches in length.  This one is in a floral pattern design in a pinky red and deco green.  It has black ears and eyes - that have a hint of a sparkle.  It is a genuine Lea Stein - not a copy or a fake - and a lot of work goes into the making of one of Lea Stein's brooches.  This is one of the many Lea Stein's I have in my shop at Alfies Antiques - they are always popular.  Ref: 3358 D47/4
