Thread: The Gentleman's Set

Checking my sellings on ebay. Leaving without having anything sold, and with a new buy on the arms..

Nice! I'm assuming this is ACTUALLY of the empire era, and not styled after it?

Ahah, no this one is actually a real one, and not a work of mine ^^

I wouldn't be surprised if the woodbox was actually a Pradier's. He was in the street Bourg l'Abbé and was also known for his work on boxes.

Wow! That's a beautiful set Thaeris!

Two new couples in ivory

Samuel Stears, Cutler to Duke of Cambridge, 36 Briggate st - Leeds
c.1840-50, 6/8" near wedge, handles and shanks in ivory


and

John Bagshaw, 87 Church st - Liverpool
(retailer of Silver & Fancy Goods including furniture)
c.1880-90, 5/8" hollow, micro barber noch, possible maker Mappin & Webb

Two boxed and re-scaled french tail-less razors :







A MOP Kindal Heljestrand (MK31) coming from another member of SRP :

Alex Clark m.f.g co. - Welbeck, Sheffield - c. 1898-1912

Just bought a 2nd Mappin & Webb 7 day set in Ivory... good price on eBay, surprised it didn't go higher







Now have 4 x 7 day sets... only 48 to go lol.

Beautiful - that's a nice set! And a M&W...are the scales made of, "natural material"?

Thanks Phrank,

Yes, 2 sets of MW in Ivory now. Plus have a beautiful set of CV Heljestrand Framebacks in Ivory plus a set of Thomas Turner also in Ivory... so I have a non-leap year set for february, just 11 other months to go The other sets are somewhere earlier in this thread.

Hopefully will be able to post pics for you in the Butcher Shop of a half dozen interesting Wade Butchers soon, they're with gssixgun being restored at the moment.
