It is a unique addition to any collection of antique sterling silver items. The tape is in working order and shows signs of age, which adds to its character and authenticity. This measuring tape is a valuable piece of history and a true vintage treasure. It is perfect for collectors and anyone who appreciates the beauty and craftsmanship of antique sterling silver items. The measuring tape is approximately 1.5” and diameter. We believe the piece is sterling, but we are not sure, the ring is marked sterling. The tape measure itself has the Gorham three character logo, and the number 27. There is also another symbol which looks like a stylized crown and a dates the piece to 1896.The piece is in good used vintage condition, the tape does not retract unless you give it some help.
