A peculiar box

Post by amena »

I wonder what this English box with such a particular shape was for.
Anyone have suggestions?

Hi Amena, without the sizes, it fits comfortably in your palm of your hand. I go for snuff or pill box.

Hello Peter
It seems a little too big for a pill box.
Could it be made to hold a disassembled pipe?

Hi Amena,

Wouldn't know, are there any clues to the inside of the box?
Although, it could be, the shape of your box matches this pipe case.

Hello Peter
the photo you posted resolved all doubts.
It's really a pipe box. As far as I'm concerned, it's the first time I've seen one.
There is nothing inside mine, perhaps there was something in the past that is no longer there.
Thanks for finding the solution.
Best regards
Amena
