Some kind of a fancy dispenser I think, but,I could be wrong.
Silver plated. I'm just hoping someone knows exactly what it is.

Mike nailed it with a match case... or shall I say 'struck it'!

Something you don't see everyday. Nice find.Congrats

 

[jewelerguy]

yes, pocket match case. the knurled end or side in your bottom pic is the striking surface

 

[Hawks88]

That’s a cool find and it came with a quick ID. Congrats

 

[Tpmetal]

i agree, match case or old lighter case

 

[Reanm8er]

In light of that, now I know what the insulation is for. To help prevent an accidental strike against the case, ouch! Can you imagine what that would be like while riding horseback?

Congrats and best wishes!
