Check out my other items!Be sure to add me to your favorites list! An item that belonged to my mother's aunt who worked for the French embassy in both Buenos Aires, Argentina and Montevideo, URUGUAY. She would frequently go to the opera. The Teatro Colon and Teatro Solis enabled her to see the likes of Arthur Rubinstein, Jascha Heifetz, Louis Armstrong, Fredrich Gulda, Enrico Caruso, Maria Callas, Louis Moreau Gottschalk and many others who were masters of RCA Victor, the keyboard, violin and bel canto genres. This item is in fair condition and needs restoration. The two mother of pearl circles are not attached. Glue became old. One tied to the original pink ribbon, the other is loose. The pin to adjust and focus is also missing. I know there is somebody out there who can easily restore the item back to its old glory which would be an indirect tribute to my mother's aunt. As she worked in the French embassy, I speculate that the item may be European in origin but I can not prove that for sure. I do not see any marking that suggests the original source. I suspect we are looking at copper possibly and almost suredly gold plate.
