kissakai Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 Hi I've seen these before but I don't know what they are called and also there use What would the 'scraper' shaped one be used for and is the dowel form used for hair (often quoted)? Is it a tourist piece or was actually used? I have no idea how it was fitted although there is a loop at the end of the chain Should I put a bit of oil on the tortoiseshell? Quote
Geraint Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 Dear Grev. Usually Chinese, as I think this one is. Usually two bone chopsticks and a knife, does the ear cleaner thingy fit well and look as though it was made for this set? (Found a set with one like this in it, not sure what it's for.) I'll get a photo of one I have for you in a bit. (Well, wrong order but there you go!) Look up Chinese trousse and you'll get a ton of images. All the best. Quote
