Back when jewelers had all the time in the world (and gold was crazy cheap), there were some fabulous objets d'art floating around!  This baby is an antique French number with the most lovely floral pattern throughout.  It has a bale on the side, which is perfect for holding matches or other bits and bobs. 

This antique yellow gold vesta case is a small piece of everyday history.  It’s charming, practical, and very collectible.  In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, people used these cases to carry matches, often wearing them on a chain as jewelry.  Picture Victorian and Edwardian men and women who valued both usefulness and great design!  Collectors and jewelry fans look for vesta cases like this, often wearing them as statement charms or eye-catching pendants. 

An excellent choice for anyone who loves antique gold jewelry, Victorian accessories, or meaningful pieces from the past.
