I would guess it is a lipstick rack/tray/holder.

It looks like a holder for mini individual salt and pepper shakers. Does it have any markings on it?

Nice catch. Inkwell, maybe?

Is it magnetic? Looks like the gold layer is peeling off of it. Maybe iron spray painted gold or gold plated brass?

I dunno, looks like it clearly had feet to sit on and nothing attached to the back. Otherwise I would guess at a broach. Those two inset areas gotta be for holding something i would guess, maybe a wax seal/stamp holder? Then again i see no residues from that stuff, was it heavily cleaned? Neat find

Thats sweet. Another great F2 score. I still have my F2 and it treated me very good. I even got a banner find with it. The 11”DD coil made it a beast! [emoji2][emoji106]

Just noticed that. Back in 2014. Looks cleaned up now though. Maybe he’s looking for some “closure” on the subject! HaHa
Cool find though! [emoji106]
