This is a rare and precious set of crochet hooks !
Tortoise shell crochet hooks with 18 carats gold.
No gold marks but tested as 18 carats gold.
The gold mounts are engraved by hand and set with cabochons for 4 of them.
This is a great quality work, worthy of the reputation of the famous Parisian store :
AUX TORTUES 55 Boulevard Hausmann in PARIS.
The shop doesn't exist anymore, but the fabulous building is still there.
Dimensions:
Length: from 12 cm to 21,5 cm
Diameter: from 2 mm to about 6 mm
The bigger crochet hook is engraved with " 1914 ".
This is probably the date when made.
Perfect condition, very rare set !
