high quality pair of pocket pistols "muff-pistols". 2" bright blue octagonal barrels with front sight, gold inlaid inscription JOSEPH KEMP with gold- and silver decoration. For good contrast the deeply engraved hammer, frame and barrel lug kept in the white, the wooden grip again decorated with silver inlays, the butt cap showing a lion's face. Cocking the hammer will bring out the folding trigger. The pistols are in excellent condition.
The pair comes in a red lined case with compartments for a rare leather-clad powder flask, a bullet mold with a small maker's mark, a nipple wrench  and a key. The excellent condition case shows on the lid a lion.

Attractive set in excellent condition
