Antique leather Viennese travel collar box by Starmount, dating to 1900–1910, measuring 16 cm wide, 8 cm high and 18 cm deep, weighing about 1 kg, and containing collars and buttons with minor signs of aging.
Description from the seller
Very antique leather Viennese travel collar box, including a leather button box with contents—collars and buttons are still included. These specific boxes were used around the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century (the Victorian and Edwardian eras) by gentlemen to store their stiff, detachable collars and neckbands crease-free while traveling.
The box has a distinctive horseshoe shape. A very popular design, partly due to the fashionable equestrian (horse riding) theme and made by Firma Starmount in Vienna. The lid features an embossed relief in the shape of a horseshoe and a decorative leather button or handle. The box closes with a leather strap that runs along its length and is fastened at the front with a metal buckle. (the very tip of the fastening strap is broken off and is loose nearby.)
Dimensions: 16 cm wide, 8 cm high, and 18 cm long.
