LARGE HAND CARVED TABLE SNUFF SHOE WITH STUD WORK AND M.O.P
This is a quite large Table Top Snuff Shoe carved from a single piece of Mahogany with nicely defined simulated lace holes at the front with brass pins and carved lines.
The toe is cut straight across with further incised designs with a well defined heel and sole.
The lid has an engraved design to a Mother of Pearl plaque with small bright cut pins in four rows. The lid has at some time lost it's pin for the hinge and has some simple tape lines to secure it. An old repair that really does not distract from what is an unusual and interesting Snuff Shoe. There is further pin work to the sole with simulated stitching to the heel with deep chisel cuts.
