Vintage Aluminium and Brass Vide-Poche with Golfer Motif by David Marshall (circa 1980s)

An aluminium and brass vide-poche (circa 1980s) by David Marshall is weighty for its size and wonderfully tactile with the maker's mark impressed on the brutalist-style brass surface. Incised in the aluminium is a profile of a golfer in mid-swing. The bottom has the trademark leather base, slightly worn. This piece is in good overall condition with characterful marks, nicks and blemishes consistent with its age, style and usage. They only add to the charm of this piece. Please view the many photos accompanying this listing. Upon request, a video will be provided.
