A beautiful carved coquilla nut pomander, modelled as an egg, dating from the 19th Century. It is made in two halves with a threaded join and is ornately carved all over with holes to allow the fragrance out.
It is good quality and a very well made piece. It is in good condition for its age with no major damages. There are some minor surface marks and a small shrinkage split but nothing detrimental and it has a lovely patina.
