Super quality sterling silver cigarette case with rose gold bands, hallmarked from London in 1915 with the makers mark being that of Thomas Callow & Son, his name and address marked on the lids rim suggesting they were makers and retailers.
Whilst most probably intended for small cigarettes of the time it could be used as a card case as well, it will not fit standard sized cards of today but bespoke cards can be made by some suppliers of business cards.
JEJJ and 1918 engraved to the inside of lid.
Condition is excellent with just one light dink on the lid (very minor).
External measurements are 81x58mm.
