This charming novelty vesta case is modelled as a small pig and made in nickel or nickel-coloured metal. The head is hinged and opens to reveal a hollow interior intended for holding vestas or small matches. A textured striker detail is fitted to the underside, consistent with traditional match safe construction. A suspension ring at the rear suggests it was designed to be carried on a chain, chatelaine, or key ring.
