    Had this quite a few years now it came from an old box of bits picked up at a car boot sale for a couple of quid :-)
    It's 2" long & the seal is a cockerel picture which has -

      This used to be the motto for Cripple Cock cider. I know I had a big poster with this on from the 80s.

      You may want to investigate this guy though:
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Coates_%28actor%29

      There is a patch on the handle with tiny black flecks. That means it is bone and not ivory. That is where the blood vessels are in the bone, ivory doesn't have that.

      Thanks again lovedecanters!!
      How interesting !!
      I listed it as ivory as the local auction saleroom told me it was an ivory seal!!
      Many thanks for the link and your love :-)
