Tiniest piece I've ever run across - I bought this one in Egypt early 90's in a small antiquities shop in the Alley in Aswan. If you've been there you will know exactly where I am talking about. I've loved this one for many years. Time to pass it onto another Egyptian lover. It measures a mere 1/2" long. The detail is most excellent. I listed it as brass but it might be bronze - I am not an expert - just a lover. I personally believe it is an revival piece from the 40's based on the locking mechanism. It might be earlier. I have never seen another piece like it - there must be more somewhere in the world. I hope this one is going to a good home - I have loved it dearly.
