RARE NORVELL SHAPLEIGH INLAID CELLULOID RAZOR

Sign In to see what this sold for

Very unusual decoration process on this razor. The orange area appears to be inlaid with celluloid shapes. The imitation ivory grain of the celluloid runs different directions with each inlay thus canceling out the posibility that this effect was achieved by coating the celluloid in orange. The orange celluloid is inlaid with imitation ivory shapes accented by engraving that's painted green. Note the cell split at one rivet and a sliver of orange loose inside back (which reveals orange color all through). Tang is marked "Norvell Shapleigh Hardware Co. St. Louis 116" on the front. Pile is marked "Made in Germany".See our other 357 razor lots currently on Ebay. We will ship via USPS Priority Mail only for $5.00 each, or combine multiples for actual cost including insurance and confirmation. For UPS shipping, contact Dennis Kemp at 816.812.4828.
