I just love this antique Vesta / Whistle combination.

Modelled as a spaniel perhaps, wearing a collar engraved with dots and zig- zags, fitted with a ring on the collar for a chain. 

The body of the whistle is engraved with a greek key motif  and the mouth piece is engraved with a decorative monogram 'A,M.'

The head has a hinged little lid which serves as the strike plate for the matches one would have kept within. 

Whistle makes a lovely high pitched sound. 

 

Just divine

 

The silver bolt shown in the images is not included, nor the chains, but they can be purchased separately.
