Well it's an english sterling shaving mug from 1892, along with an english ivory wedge "brook and crooks" cutthroat from the same period (post 1892 because stamped "england").

The trade mark is not the usual "handgun", but the later "bell" !

The tiny shaving brush is custom made by a friend of the french forum "CCC", the design is a copy of a victorian one...it's made of an turned piece of antler.

And finally the camera is the nikon D3200 with fixed lens 50MM 1,8 on tripod.


Nice and happy new year !
