Beautiful painting of a girl, miniature on ivory from the late 18th century, size: 6.5-5.5 cm. The frame is not coeval (early 20th century) and made of tortoiseshell with copper inlays. It has some small defects and missing parts at the bottom, see photos. Frame size: width 14.5 cm, height 16 cm . Very important: with this certification I can sell the item only within the EU. Outside the EU, the Cites is required, so the purchaser will incur expenses for the different authorities and the bureaucratic times will be 45/60 days approx. If for any reason the Cites will not be issued, the purchaser will have to collect the item on site, but I will be also available to ship it to another address within the EU. Thank you. Bidders should be aware that in some countries it is not allowed to import items derived from endangered or protected species, even if there is a certificate of origin. If you make a bid for this lot, you are fully aware of customs laws and regulations of your country.
