A very good quality Victorian solid Vesta case made in all sterling silver.  With a hammered pattern on all sides and edges.  There is a circular central cartouche with initials.  The match striker is underneath and still works very well.  The maker and hallmark is on the inside top edge.

It measures 4cm x 3cm x 0.7cm when closed.

It is fully hallmarked for Birmingham 1900.

The maker mark is CS FS (Cornelius Desormeaux Saunders & James Francis Hollings (Frank) Shepherd).

It weighs 18.6gms (0.5 troy ounce).

The condition is excellent.  The pattern is still very good and the hinge closes securely.  A very nice example of a Victorian dated Vesta.  Please do study all of the photographs carefully and if you have any questions please email.
