A late 19th nickel plated erotic automaton vesta case, the rectangular case with engine turned exterior opening to reveal a gilt brass bedroom scene, 5.6cm W (at fault)
We believe there is a section to the right of the erotic scene missing which is other similar models looks to be a cheval mirror, plate wear to the exterior of the case concentrated around the corners of the vesta, wear from scuffing is apparent on the interior gilt brass scene where high points make contact with the lid, striker is very worn, the sprng loaded covers are functional. In order to activate erotic scene you have to manually wind wheel beneath coverl, gilt brass scene still clear, general wear throughout commensurate with age and useage.
