    I need help in identifying the maker and the age of this item. I was lucky enough to buy this at an estate sale about 20 years ago. I originally thought this was a compact, but was later told it was a cigarette case.

    The flowers on the top appear to be gold and rubies. There is a mark on the left side, magnified it looks like a raised star. On the right is the number 8058 plus a mark I can not figure out.

      I don't really mind what it is, but I would really like to have it! Hope a hallmark expert comes along soon. Just noticed the original post was five months ago, so I hope the poster is still around.

      Gillian, I am still around. Like you, I don't care if it is a compact or cigarette case. I love this.
