This is a rare miniature Tunbridge Ware spice tower and combined nutmeg grater.
Originating from Tunbridge it was made in the early part of the 1800's.
On the lid is a street scene from Brighton. The lid unscrews to reveal a nutmeg grater. The two compartments also unscrew for storage of spice. Both have their original labels, Nutmeg and Ginger. The spice tower also still retains the small green label "A Tunbridge Ware Gift'.
There is a minor shrinkage mark to the back.
It only measures 9cm h x 4.8cm w.
