Antique Victorian pig pen wipe novelty brass piggy desk writing accessory

Here is a wonderful antique brass pig novelty pen wipe, probably from the mid to late 1800s victorian period. This amazing little pen wipe is made from i believe brass in the shape of a pig with original natural bristles to the pigs back. Stands nicely on its own with cute little curled tail, in very good condition with only minor signs of wear, the brass is tarnished but would come up nicely with a carful clean (i have not cleaned it at all as i know some people may prefer it in its uncleaned state).

A brilliant rare piece which would make a great gift for a pig collector or as a novelty desk ornament. Condition: very good (could do with a carful clean). Measures 6.5cm long by 4cm tall.

This item is made of brass and metal, natural bristles.
