Rare scrimshaw tortoise shell BUTTERFLY frame

A wonderful scrimshaw tortoise shell frame in the form of a BUTTERFLY with two oval windows to display photographs. We believe that this marvelous creation is very likely sailor or whaler made. It is hand crafted with silver and copper pins and is in excellent condition. The photographs are from my Nantucket collection. Size: 10 inches by 10 inches.
