“The variety of types of antiques offered in this auction is vast,” Mr. Woody remarked. “And the quality is excellent throughout.” He added, “One of the most intriguing items is something we are calling Victorian Ladies Necessary Cases, dating to around the 1750’s. These are small, unique pieces, with each one containing such important things as a nail file, tweezers, scissors, pencils, and more. We also have over twenty miniature cameo items of the best quality.” Lot 123 is the Wedgwood vase marked Fairyland Lustre #Z4968 in the Dragon King pattern.
