For sale is a RARE early American antique tinder box with its complete assembly of fire starting tools (a flint rock, a iron striker, and some tinder fiber). The box was hand hammered and formed with brass by highly skilled metal smith in the 1700s. This tinder box is a essential tool carried by colonial American pioneers to kindle fire in the wilderness and to start a fire for a primitive hearth. This particular box is in octagon form with domed sides. It measures approximately 2.5″ by 2″, 1.25 thick. The lid snaps shut properly with all content inside. Nice original wrought iron lock mechanism can be observed in the interior. The hinge is sturdy. The Initials “J B” are lightly scratched on the lid. Overall, a rare example of colonial American pioneer’s tinder box that should not be passed by any serious collectors of early Americana /colonial tools/ wrought iron antiquities. Some imperfection but certainly authentic! Feel free to check out my other antique and collectible listings.

There are two small holes on the lid and some metal wrinkles around. Did a bullet bounced off it and saves the owner’s life? We will never know.

Ultra Rare Amber 2 Bun Geisha Lady Cambridge Glass American History Depression Glass. This is an ultra rare large heavy Amber clear 2 Bun Geisha made by the Cambridge Glass company in the United States. This Geisha is absolutely gorgeous in this condition, Cambridge Glass at its best. The black stand in some of the photos was for display only and is not for sale, but you can get a stand for yourself if you like. The figurine is a Geisha with 2 Buns in her hair one on each side. She is holding what looks like a flower in her left hand and another flower on her right arm. The Geisha is 10 inches. The base of the Geisha is. 2 & 3/4 inches. The figurine is very heavy and solid. The Geisha is in very good condition with no cracks or chips, but there is a tiny fissure in the bottom, which I have mention for accuracy. The Geisha is very scarce and very hard to find in any colour, you do not see them on auctions anymore. This rare Geisha has been in my collection for a long time, but now some one else can enjoy this lovely amber figurine in their collection. Have a look at all the photos to see the lovely colour and condition. I know what it is like to get broken items and feel bitterly disappointed when they are not wrapped properly. I will double box this lovely amber clear Geisha Figurine. To protect it, and make sure you get it in the same beautiful condition it is in now.
