Any thoughts on it's use? It has beautiful birds and faces! It's a great piece Thanks for any help and hope I posted the picture correctly! Use the new image hosting and found it very easy!

PhilO Posts: 166 Registered: Jul 2004	posted 04-27-2015 03:07 AM William Comyns & Sons were prolific makers of dressing sets - brushes, mirrors, unguent pots, etc. This tray would almost certainly have been part of such a set for the lady owner to put on her dressing table to hold all of her various requisites such as the aforementioned brushes, etc., hair pins, creams and powders.
