Cartier Sterling 74 Case or Holder of Some Sort?
« on: December 18, 2012, 03:57:49 pm »
Hey Guys!!

I have this Cartier Piece and I have NO CLUE what it is!!

It measures:

 2 1/8" Long 5/8" Wide and 7/8" High

The Hallmarks on it shows:

Cartier Sterling 74 on the Bottom?
and there is a 24 on the inside of the Top? near the Hinge.. I tried to take clear photos but if you need more info please let me know!

If you know what this is or any Specific details about it that would be great  :)

Thanks again!
Nicole

Looks to be a cigarette lighter cover !!  Goes in from bottom then closes. working part extends through the opening ?? Thats why the name is upright when its upside down !!  My best guess !!

Ditto the cigarette lighter holder!
