More Information

Trevanion & Dean does not ship items containing ivory outside the EU. Trevanion & Dean recommends that buyers check with their own government regarding any importation requirements prior to placing a bid. A buyer's inability to import these lots cannot justify a delay in payment or sale cancellation.

The government have proposed legislation to create a UK law to ban the sale of all ivory. Please note this means that this lot is legal to sell now but may not be in the future.

Spring mechanism can be operated but is faulty. One crown feather is missing. The parasol has visible splits however the parasol does open and close. The silver mount is tarnished but hallmarks are still clear and legible.
