This unique two-piece desk or novelty set features a brass stiletto dagger paired with a matching leather sheath that ingeniously houses a pull-out magnifying glass. The dagger is styled with a cylindrical brass grip topped with an intricately carved carved resin/bone-effect pommel depicting a ferocious roaring beast or gargoyle head. The stitched leather sheath is fitted with a decorative oval brass plaque marked "C. Elliott, New London 1868", offering a distinctive maritime or historical collector's aesthetic. The set shows light surface wear, natural brass tarnish, and aging consistent with display and handling. The carved head pommel, blade, magnifying glass, snap fastener, and stitched leather sheath remain intact and functional overall. Dimensions: Dagger: 22cm L | Magnifying Glass: 10.5cm L
