    Description

    Dating to approximately 1890, this brass horseshoe Match Holder is in close to excellent condition with just a few dents. 1 7/8ths inches tall not including the suspension ring and 1 3/8ths at its widest point, this English vesta weighs 0.8 ounces.
    The design is the same on both sides. The indented striker is well used but there is plenty of use left and the tension bar functions as it should and the lid snaps shut and stays open.
    Note the screw on one side, an indication that this match holder dates to the 19
    th
    century.
    Postage should be around depending on where the match holder is going.
    I do not charge for packaging and handling, so please wait for an invoice for exact postage charges before paying.
    Thank you for your interest and your bid.
