What-is-it question XVI.

Postby 2209patrick » Sat Mar 03, 2007 10:56 am

These items were made by Thomas William Dee & Sons, London, 1866.
They were a wedding present to the Earl of Sefton by Albert Edward, Prince of Wales (the future Edward VII).
What are they called?

Hi Pat,
I think this one's beaten me!, is it some kind of cigar lighter and accessories?

Hi Pat,
As soon as you mentioned Edward VII, the first thought was cigars,
