A very good example of a "gentleman's" snuff box (probably a woodworker) in the form of a carpenters small wood plane....it is made of fruitwood and has an ingenious way of opening, by removing the handle at one end, which allows the lid to slide open....it is in perfect condition with a very attractive natural colour.
