The set consists of 5 different matching toilet accessories, including several clothing/hat brushes and a comb. The pieces are richly finished with polished sterling silver mounts (925/1000), bearing English silver hallmarks.

The silver parts bear clear British hallmarks, including the lion passant (sterling silver) and the maker's mark of a renowned English silversmith.

The silver tops are elegantly decorated with fine vertical lines and dot motifs. In the center there is an engraved monogram, giving the whole an especially personal and aristocratic appearance.
