..and this is an antique enameled Vesta Case.
Can't you just see the beautiful calling cards that this case once held? Opps - I have been corrected. A vesta case was used to hold matches - not calling cards...and here is an antique that has nothing to do with sidesaddle, riding or horses.. this is a piece I went to an auction to buy... only to find out it was a part of a 3 piece set. Alas I did not have room for the other 2 pieces, so there I sat.. melancholy and pouting as I watched my beautiful Victorian dressing mirror with lingerie drawers go to another bidder..
..and YES.. I am still pouting..

A vesta case would only have been used for vestas(matches) not calling cards. ;-)
I just bought that menu on ebay, I can not wait till it gets here.
Oooh, I see why you are bummed out about that dressing mirror. It's gorgeous.
Just wanted to tell you I have left you an award over on my blog! :-)
