Antique 9ct Gold Vesta Match Case
A beautifully crafted 1930s vesta case in 9ct yellow gold. The body displays a striped design with a circular engraving zone, ideal for adding a personalised inscription. The piece features a dedicated match striker surface on the bottom, and a bolt‑ring so it can be suspended or worn as a pendant if desired.
Vesta cases were originally designed from the 1830s onwards as small protective containers for friction (“strike‑anywhere”) matches their name derived from Vesta, the Roman goddess of fire and the hearth. By the early 20th century they became popular accessories, often suspended from chains alongside gentleman’s watch chains.
