Antique 19th-Century Grooming / Manicure Tool Set in Original Metal Case

A very old folding pocket grooming kit dating from the late 1800s to early 1900s.

The set includes several original metal tools: small scissors, nail files, tweezers, blade tools and grooming implements – all fitted in the custom recessed slots of the metal case.

The case opens and closes correctly, with original latch still present.

Tools show age-related wear, oxidation and patina consistent with the age of the item.

A rare surviving example – ideal for collectors of Victorian grooming tools, barbershop antiques, early medical implements or curiosities.

Condition:

• Heavy patina, oxidation and rust on tools

• Some tools stiff and may need oiling

• Case has scratches and age wear

• Clasp works but shows age

Still a very desirable antique piece.
