That's what I was thinking a book of some sort because of the inside brackets..

It is:
2inches tall
The front or back flap measures 1.25in wide
 and the binding is only about 1in wide

Hi!

I have this sterling clip? It looks antique.. I have no real idea what its used for?

If anyone knows what it really is or value or where I can get specific information that would be great!

The 3 marks shows:(I think)
R (in a box)
A sword through a B (in a box)
Co (in a box)

It measures 2cm long by 1cm wide

Thanks in advance,
Nicole

You are probably right it looks like matches were maybe put in there still smoldering because of the marks inside..

The only markings are K on 1 side and B on the other ...

What era do you think this is from or how can I get any more specific information!

Thanks again everyone for all your help

The 2nd photo above I posted shows STERLING TIFFANY & CO - There is no other marking except a Monogram engraved on the front.. Should there be another mark?

It is a filigree with NO lining .. If it was a match case which I think is correct but where would they strike the match?

It definitely seems like something was burnt inside this or like you said a match case...

Thank you for responding!
It might be too big for a sewing thimble case?

It is 3.25 inches tall - and 2.25 inches wide

There was like a soot? on the inside when I cleaned it but I cant be sure..
