No international shipping. Very old French drafting tool set, The inside cover of the case bears the logo "Compas Supr � Portemine Mobile". . '''PLEASE EXAMINE ALL PICTURES'''. I do not know much about this. The only one I found was one that sold in the UK last year for several hundred dollars, Had the same name and emblem. But it had some different tools and only 13 pieces on the top, box was in better shape. According to the description on their auction for this they said this is from the late 19th century, German silver, bone handles, and box was made layers of rosewood. I have seen similar ones but the name was slightly different and the emblem different. There are seventeen pieces on the top, one of the pieces "the compass beam missing screw". I really don't know much about the rest of the pieces. As you can see in the pictures the tools have some age to it. I am assuming they can be cleaned there is a little corrosion on them but they are over a 100 years old. Thumb tacks used on the metal latch, chip on the top right corner as seen in pictures. Silk lining is fraying and torn. No key. Under the tray there are additional pieces not sure what came with this and what is extra, even a small vial with lead. If you have any questions please email me. If you want additional pictures of the tools let me know. THANK YOU. My descriptions read more
