with a nice weight

including in combination with splint ash on the lower half of the vessel

) The brass cat and corkscrew both show some age and wear

Fully functional as a stamp if inked or pressed into a wax seal

I might be inclined to sew a little ribbon to the back corners of this in order to hang it on the wall

Pair of Antique Bone 1/2 Inch Cube Dice figures with a nice weightSo much more pleasurable to the throw a pair of old handmade bone dice than new plastic ones, and I think they must be luckier, too! I believe these date to the Civil War era, and are likely a mixed pair one is a bit grayer in tone and the other flecked a bit more brown but they are of the same size, just shy of 1 2" across on each side, and very lovely together. Very good antique condition.
