I have for sale, a really fine quality, Gentlemens travelling & grooming case with contents, by the London Jewellery / fine object shop, MAPPIN & WEBB.

The contents are in no particular order: 

Glove stretchers x 3 ( ivorine)

Various bottles (5) with silver Lids, monogrammed and fully hallmarked English silver for : 1910 made by Mappin & Webb

Leather folders (two) for writing paper and blotting ink ( two folders)

Writing utensils and ink holder.

Matchbox. .

Ebony / or ebonised wooden shoe horn with silver band. Hallmarked fully for Chester- this is likely to be an additional or replacement item.

Brushes Ivorine and monogrammed  -  bristles in good condition (Two brushes)

Leather bound mens flask, tops are not silver.

 The original Key for case

Manicure set with 1 item ( scissors, I think) missing.

Silver toned, but not silver box - purpose unknown.

The dimensions of the leather case ( which has its original key) : L 44.5cms  B:  32.5cms  W: 18.5cms

The front inside of the case, bears the tooled, gilded name of : Mappin & Webb, 220 Regent Street.

Please note that the contents are probably not 100% complete,  but I cannot say, exactly what was original / or not. These were also custom made to a clients specification.

Overall: condition of the Bottles : excellent, no breaks or chips. Silver caps, all great condition - no dents / dings / spits.

Condition of the case is very good,  there is one scuff on the top right hand corner of the case. The leather does display some marking; some water damage ( very little) and there are some frayed bits of the silk lining in the interior. 

The inside of the case appears to be a beautiful dark green silk. There are  few frayed bits of silk, but nothing that one would not expect from an item that is over 100 years of age.

The case bears the Monogram: EMH, as do the 5 silver capped bottles.

The brushes are in good condition  Monogrammed: EM

I have done some research on these items. They seldom come up for sale with contents. I have seen the leather cases for sale , without any contents at over 350 British pounds ( +- €400) in the U.K

Mappin and Webb are a very important London retailer, who specialised in these Travel cases for both Men & the ladies. This is A MUST for anyone, who appreciates finely made luggage; with the bonus of having a large amount of contents intact.

I have NOT tried to polish / or clean the case in any way. There is no major damage at all. The key works and the case can be locked. The top stitching on the case is in excellent condition. 

The locks and handle ( wear can be seen on the leather)  are in fine condition. The brass is uncleaned and would benefit from a clean to bring up the original shine.

This is a really gorgeous and rare item, with the contents.

Please note that as a private seller, there are no guarantees / nor returns. 

I have attempted to photograph and describe this item to the best of my knowledge. Please look at the photos, as these too form part of the description. If you require any additional photos, PLEASE ask.

Please note that the Postage quoted is with HERMES for Germany ONLY: this rate includes insurance up to €500 and a tracking number.

Anyone, wishing to purchase from anywhere else in the EU, please ASK FOR A POSTAGE QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING.

PAYPAL IS THE ONLY ACCEPTED FORM OF PAYMENT. I do combine purchases, if they are able to fit into the same size parcel. Two larger items, may be at a higher rate, if the parcels cannot be combined at the same postage rate. 

Thank you for looking.
