Thread: COFFRET de voyage " EMPIRE "

Before restoration, here are some pictures of a superb travel package 4 floors mahogany that I received yesterday.
There was a small problem at the start, the former owner had broken the key in the micro lock can not be opened, we had to find a solution, so I managed to drive the shaft of the piano hinge, it which gave me access to some fixing screws on the thickness that you could not see when it was closed! I was able to get out the lock and retrieve the broken end, it remains for me to find a key micro, if anyone has any clues because the replacement is not at the top!
It consists of four beautiful razors, 2 heljestrand ivory and mother of pearl 2 McDaniel one piece! and a multitude of travel items, the majority of ivory whom we'll see when it will be restored?











Le miroir est cassé, mais ce n'est pas un gros problème !

The mirror is broken, but it's not a big problem!

Thank you for sharing this wonderful work of art. I never get tired of see beautiful things like these. I can only imagine the skill needed to make a set like this.
