Description: Original Victorian Gentleman's highly unusual pocket watch chain working compass porcelain fob in the form of an Antique toilet! C~1890's. (Imagine this would have been a one off special commission piece). Slightly similar to the fob I have supplied to 'Pinewood Studios'. (Please excuse the reflections/dark shadows in the pictures - was very difficult to photograph). Measures; 4cm length (including the side ring), 2.7cm height, 1.3cm width and weighs a respectable 11.2 grams. The working compass is set into the fixed toilet 'lid' (does not open) and has a silver coloured dial with black directional markers and blued steel needle pointer which operates correctly. Original glass (not acrylic). The front of the toilet carries the initials (in black script); P.H., - these have been fired in, not painted over the top of the glaze - I wonder if this was a special commission piece (have never seen one before) and the initials are either the makers or the original owners. (Certainly was someone with a sense of humour!) Original large nickel side ring to attach to a Gentleman's pocket watch chain. Excellent clean and bright condition with no damage and just some very light overall patina (showing under eyeglass only) commensurate with age. Will arrive in a new velvet presentation pouch and be securely and safely packed. Please view my feedback as guarantee of my integrity. *** WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE *** UK - FREE!
