Novelty Victorian Chester silver toothpick holder, fashioned in the shape of a handled churn.

The toothpick holder is fully hallmarked for Chester, 1892, and the makers Cornelius Desormeaux Saunders and James Francis Hollings (Frank) Shepherd.
All marks are crisp and clear.

The churn measures 1.8 cm (.7") in diameter across the top, 2.8 cm (1.1") in diameter across the base, and stands 3.9 cm (1.5") tall. It weighs 13g.
All measurements are approximate.
The toothpick is in reasonable condition given its age/usage. The base and top rim are misshapen.
