It is Sterling, but what?

Hello All,

Dug this sterling piece today. I believe it is to small to be a napkin holder bit not sure. Oh sorry for the upside down Sterling mark. Thanks for looking and helping.

It looks like the top of a shaving brush.

The piece that holds the bristles to the handle.

I thought napkin holder, so out of ideas, although worth checking how small the diameter goes

Napkin holder was the first thing that came to mind for me also. Monty

maybe a neckerchief slide?

maybe a napkin for dwarf .... or ring for the square finger.

I think Sean is right. It looks to be the sleeve portion (above the threaded area) of a Victorian traveling shaving brush. Nice find, Breezie

 

[High Plains Digger]

Definitely not a serviette ring. Not to British standards, and the sterling would be on the inside. That makes the brush thing more plausible.

Thanks all for the help I will go with a part of a brush for shaving.
