Antique Sterling Silver Dance Card Mempire Notebook Chatelaine

Wonderful silver antique (maybe Victorian era - 1910?) chatelaine notebook/dance card. Inscribed with the date May, 24 ‘10 (a bit unsure of the last two numbers at the end) This beautiful repousse piece has a great patina and the original leafs of papers inside complete with little notes including a New Orleans, LA address. The paper leafs inside are brittle and fragile. A few paper pieces have chipped/broke on the edges. Please see photos. Seems to be a hallmark on the clip piece, but due to the age and patina not clear enough for me to read. History on the chatelaine- Chatelaines were used by both men and women, usually fastened to a belt or pocket, and small household objects were attached to the main body of the chatelaine by chains. Such as scent bottles, compacts, notebooks etc. They were only worn by the heads of the household as a display of position and power. **PLEASE NOTE*** FREE SHIPPING USPS Priority Mail (2-4 days) with insurance, within the domestic 48 states USA!
