It stands approximately 9cm tall and features a fabric-covered pincushion at its base, topped with a miniature, rotatable airplane. The airplane has three propellers (on both wings and the nose) and a sophisticated mechanism that allows it to rotate around its central mounting point. The hallmarks \"Anchor (Birmingham),\" \"Lion (sterling silver guarantee),\" \"K (date mark),\" and \"PPL (maker's mark)\" confirm it as a piece from the early 1900s. Its unusual design, inspired by the Wright brothers' first flight, is characteristic of its era. While practical, it also possesses significant artistic value, making it an excellent choice for collections or display.
