    hi guys. my dad has had this a while and ask me if I could find out its age and where it was made. any help would be appreciated. it's about 5 cm wide at its widest point 19mm at the top, about 3 cm at the bottom and about 22mm wide. it did have a brass spoon in it when he got it but it broke off and he cant find it. thanks all.
