Aluminium and Brass Vide-Poche by David Marshall (circa 1980s)
SKU 2732
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 brass edge. Octagonal in shape, the brass edges frame the shiny aluminium. The bottom has the trademark leather base with company stamp, rather worn. This piece is in good overall condition with characterful marks, nicks and blemishes consistent with its age 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.
