Omani Two Silver Scroll or Document Holders

About the Item

Two fine graduated vintage Omani silver pierced scroll or document holders believed to date to the early to mid 20th century. The scroll holders are of long hollow cylindrical shape with decorative finials to either end, one doubling up as a removable cap allowing the insertion of a rolled document or scroll. These finely crafted scroll holders are made in high grade silver and both are designed with stylized oval petal designs forming a hatch pierced design to the bodies with molded designs to the end terminals. One of several examples we will be offering from an extensive collection of silver originating from the Middle and Far East. Provenance: From the extensive collection of a distinguished lady acquired in the Middle East and fresh to the market. In good condition with wear associated with age and use.
