Razor Coffin?

Being a sucker for old oddities I picked this up today. Not sure if it really is an old razor coffin but it will do the job. Looks like it will take quite a bit of cleaning up.

What's it made out if Bob? Tc

I see a lot of old glasses at antique stores, in cases similar to this.

As a wild guess, brass?

Yes, that was another thought I had too. It could easily be what it is.

Does it slide open into two pieces like a razor coffin ? Cool whatever it was originally for if it works.

I'm betting it was a case for reading glasses. If it's metal it would probably make a good travel case for a razor.

Yup, slides open like a razor coffin or, alternatively, reading glasses case.
