"Nanny's Silver And Mother-of-pearl Whistling Rattle"
I like these English words... silver baby rattle, nursery? whisle... but this whistling rattle is French... Birth gift for the youngest... He has already been baptized Léon Pierre or Philippe Louis (like the name of the king at the time); as evidenced by the intertwined initials, engraved on the back of "souvenir" Ah, this memorable day... we will remember it, he did not cry that day. Thank you, nanny. Beautiful witness object, beautiful collector's item. PS do you know why the handle is made of mother-of-pearl?
