An Exquisite 19th century German match safe made of Ivory and what we believe is tortoise shell. It bears an inscription which reads “du sollst Nichttohen”. I don;t read German but the detail of the inlay in remarkable. Ther are some minute losses but by and large this is an extraordinary example of a match safe.
Some losses to the ivory and tortoise shell.
