	A most unusual Daguerreotype. It’s the case!! I really hope you can see all of the detail here. On the front of the case is a highly embossed farm scene in great detail with a large Victorian house in the foreground, a barn in the background .There are cows & horses in the barn yard in front of the house & to the right there is a hay wagon full of hay that the men are unfailing, a little boy is playing in the foreground .In the far background, there is an outline of a steeple church, houses & trees. On the back side of the case is a large classical design oval in the center ,framed by more highly embossed designs.The overall case is in really great condition , it looks just like deep sculpted licorice! Open the case & there is a large size full portrait bust of two women , they look like sisters & what is interesting is the clothing & Victorian jewelry that they are wearing .The interior photo frames are gilt brass in a very formal classical design .The frames are a bit tarnished .This case measures 6 ¼” long x 5”wide x 1”deep.This Daguerreotype is not ordinary ,it is a very special case & no doubt very expensive in its day !
