Hi Guys,
I have here a lovely old shell case dated 1900, but as I am not a shell collector, I know very little else about it. I can tell it's English and the date, also it has the Royal Laboratories mark on it. It measures roughly 3\" across the base, 2.5\" across the top and is about 11\" long, however it looks like some brass has been trimmed from the top many moons ago. There is a lovely patina on it which you could never reproduce. It's heavy so postage will be a few quid but I am open to any offers.I hope the pics are clear enough, Tony.
