Raffles hotel singapore item.

Hi
Just wondering if anyone knew the date this raffles hotel Singapore item was made? (no date on it).
I'm thinking it was used for keys.

That is a neat piece.  I think it is for keys also.  Raffles started in 1887 and if you go to this site http://www.raffles.com/EN_RA/Property/RHS/History/  you can read the history that plays along a timeline.  Just looking at the style, I would think it may date from its' beginning to the 1920s.  I would contact the hotel, send them a pic, and see if they would reply with a specific date.

I have to agree with waywardangler!  What are the dimensions?
