    1. Mervyn. Harrod's trading in skulls ?? What took them so long to recognise REAL quality items ?? I think I'll start up my own jewellery shop ........................
    2. Same skull design on a letter crest .............. one on the right ..................
    3. Only ever seen one other similar one before .................. and I think it could be a copy!
    4. ................ button, c. 1830. Pre-'Charge of the Light Brigade'. Just picked this one up.
    5. Eric. Now I have the item in hand, the handle is actually real bone, not wood. Looks like an animal bone of some kind. I think it's just some sort of 'memento mori / vanitas' item.
    6. Thanks Paul. It was just one of those 'old oddities' that I couldn't resist. Knowing my luck, it'll be from an undertaker's .................... or an ossuary !!
    7. Nice George IV item. Police, or bailiff ?? (The seller got this monarch's dates wrong on the advert!) ;)
